Fig. 2: Steps for fitting an apartment using the hypergraph method.

From: A hypergraph model shows the carbon reduction potential of effective space use in housing

Fig. 2

An apartment boundary is extracted from a building (a) and combined with a library of hypergraphs (b). The applied hypergraphs generate different internal subdivisions for the apartment boundary (c). A spatial evaluation using placement of furniture, accessibility, and room geometry is performed to filter feasible solutions (d). Energy and daylight analysis are performed to further evaluate the resulting floor plan (e), and a chosen plan is inserted into the building (f).
