In Week 1, we’ll overview generative design and cover the fundamentals of creating preserve and obstacle geometry for setting up a generative design study. With generative design, it’s important to understand the mindset needed to set up a generative design study and control the areas where it can and can’t explore. Through obstacles to avoid and preserves to keep, we’ll appropriately create the basis of a generative shelf bracket.
