This paper reviews theme of generative convergence and its implications on the
relation between architecture and its production tools. Beside assimilation of digital
technologies, assigning of knowledge and appropriation of methods processes and
procedures of other disciplines also demarcate current architectural discourse.
Transfer of technologies, whereas technology does not infer just hardware but a
mode of system thinking, involves effort for their integration in a manner that should
correspond specific needs and conditions of architectural practice. The transposition
of creative tools influences re-thinking of design process in the course of the logic of
operation of applied tool enabling innovation and categorical transformations.
Focused on design of architectural structures an approach for performance-oriented
design generation will be presented. Concept of design process as a production
system enables application of different strategies, integration and convergence ...of
diverse production systems in a single meta-system. In order to operate in productive
way, these methods use CAD/CAM/CAE cross-platform and connect an object with
the set created by automated generative system, moving emphasis form a single
object to a system and its possibilities to produce variations. Goals of such
considerations are efficient use of resources and optimization of design process.
