Abstract
The potential of architectural combinatorics as a design method for multifunctional residential complexes in the digital age
Incoming article date: 09.12.2024The paper investigates the use of architectural combinatorics to solve the problems of multifunctional residential complexes in the conditions of digital transformation. The main methods of combinatorics, including conceptual and formal approaches, are considered. The main stages of evolution of the method, starting from constructivism, and the role of modern digital technologies such as BIM, parametric modeling, machine learning and artificial intelligence in the implementation of combinatorial approaches are described. Attention is given to sustainable architecture and optimization of spatial solutions. Successful and problematic project examples are analyzed. Limitations of the application of the technologies are analyzed, as well as ethical and social aspects of their use. The conclusions substantiate the significance of the method in the context of contemporary challenges.
