11.6 Conclusions

project-specific criteria such as floor area or site requirements. There is some ge-

netic diversity in the breeding pool, but the search space is usefully constrained.

A middle level concerns the movement system. The circulatory route of a

building is required to link spaces in a way that enables their configurational re-

quirements. However, there is a wide range of possibilities in terms of the forms

capable of creating particular configurations. There is more genetic diversity

than in the spaces themselves. All fully formed circulatory systems will meet the

defined requirements. ...
