Set targets · DBF Help Center

In DBF, designers can set goals and constraints for their project to explore design solutions that respond intelligently to their project requirements.

1. Set Targets and Constraints

You can start by setting goals and constraints for your project on the right hand-side settings panel. In this panel, you can define the following input parameters: Number of Subplots, Site Coverage, Gross Floor Area and Maximum Height.

These inputs will be used to inform your design exploration and test out possible design solutions for your site.

2. Input Targets

Set yor target number in the input field at the botton of the target panel. In this case we are using: 3 Subplots, 150,000 m2 for GFA, 50% site coverage and 100 meters for max height.

3. Generate

Click on the PLAY button to start generating design solutions for your site. The generate tool will use the settings that you specified in previous steps and present you with possible solutions.
The targets panel will show the numeric result arrived at for the design on display. In this case all targetshave been hit.
