Over two millennia ago the Roman architect Vitruvius formulated the
three principles of Architecture: 1. Durability (L. firmitatis) -
it should stand up robustly and remain in good condition;2. Utility
(L. utilitatis) - it should be useful and function well for the
people using it; and 3. Beauty (L. venustatis)- it should delight
people and raise their spirits.Presently, the first two problems
belong entirely to the field of Engineering Design, and the third
one at least partially. Application of Computational Intelligence
(CI) methods to these fundamental problems of Architecture is
presented. The novelty of proposed solutions is based on the
paradigm shift in the sciences caused by the introduction of
"computation" in the middle of the XXth century and the resulting
ability to effectively mimic natural heuristics for problem
solving.
