abstract = {Architecture-by-Yourself is an experiment in computer aided design
that applies the medium of computer graphics, used by a general
populace. The research program confronts the delicate balance
between insightfulness and paternalism toward a user who
ultimately bares the risk. The paper reports on a case study, on
the underlying philosophy's of the French architect Yona Friedman,
and on a computer implementation called YONA. As part of a larger
research effort, Machine Recognition and Inference Making in
Computer Aids to Design, we postulate further developments that
will exercise input and visualization techniques in a relentless
setting, relentless in the sense that the user is demanding, the
problem is hard, and the product is a personal, one-of-a-kind
design.},
