Abstract

This paper presents the new framework for visual computational design in which emergence is a key to creativity. Visual shape grammar computations proceeded with the use of diagrams are situated in a design context indirectly through the designer working with the application or more explicitly through curious agents. Curiosity of intelligent agents is applied to search for novel and plausible design solutions. The approach is illustrated by designing decorative patterns.
