Abstract
This paper presents a new method for the automatic modeling of
architecture. Building designs are derived using split grammars, a
new type of parametric set grammar based on the concept of shape.
The paper also introduces an attribute matching system and a sepa-
rate control grammar, which offer the ßexibility required to model
buildings using a large variety of different styles and design ideas.
Through the adaptive nature of the design grammar used, the cre-
ated building designs can either be generic or adhere closely to a
speciÞed goal, depending on the amount of data available.
