Abstract

The last decade has witnessed an interest in studying the relationship among genetic variables of architecture, architectural design style, and environmental variables. It is one of the studies emanating from genetics studies the dynamic map changes in the genotype and phenotype, where the phenotypic structure varies with genetic background and surrounding environmental factors. The genetic architecture simulates this concept; hence the architecture genotype changes according to environmental changes like the genotype of the organisms. These dynamic environmental changes are followed by changes in patterns and characteristics of the design in what is called genetic design.
The research problem is the possibility of applying the concept of genetic architecture in designing buildings that have an adaptive capacity with various environmental variables through the use of genetic engineering. The research focuses on studying the relationship between Genetic Engineering and Genetic Architecture and ensuring its role in developing the architectural style. The researchers describe and analyze some architectural models within the genetic system, and the study aims to extract the levels of symmetry between genetic engineering and genetic architecture by developing a theoretical framework that includes the components of this relationship.
The research leads to the appropriate results, the components and elements of architectural design are a group of genes that are loaded with design information responsible for determining the architectural form in line with the surrounding environment. Genetic Architecture and Genetic Engineering are jointly changing the configuration to suit environmental conditions through modifying relationships between parts and design elements.
