shape emergence & design software

  1. designers recognize patterns in drawings they make

  2. these patterns trigger inferences about developing design

  3. if design software could recognize these patterns

  4. then it might support design semantically.


  5. conventional drawing programs fix design representations

  6. recognition-based draw programs are better suited

  7. a proof-of-concept system based on BoE
