The following paper describes a shape grammar that recreates Palladian villas. A Palladian grammar was originally proposed by Stiny and Mitchell. However, this alternative grammar uses different parametric shape rules and methodology to test the hypothesis that different grammars can generate the same corpus of designs.

Shape grammars: five questions
Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 1999In the paper “Shape grammars: six types”, the issue of decidability in relation to shape grammars was introduced. Decidability concerns, first, the identification of different types of grammars, and, second, the answerability or solvability of questions about these types of grammars. The first of these two topics was explored in “Six types”.

Inca reconstruction using shape grammar
SIGGRAPH '09: Posters, 2009Muller et al. introduced CGA shape, a shape grammar for procedural modeling of architecture [Muller et al. 2006b], which they applied to Mayan archaeological site in Xkipche [Muller et al. 2006a]. Inspired by this application of shape grammars to archaeology, we built a simple reconstruction application that uses a shape grammar to build 3D Inca sites ...

Interweaving Grammar: Reconfiguring Vernacular Structure through Parametric Shape Grammar
International Journal of Architectural Computing, 2010This paper re-examines the interweaving method to demonstrate how architectural computation can reinterpret the advantages of this traditional crafting techniques for its geometrical compatibility and rule generativity. Firstly, the technique analyzes and reconfigures load distribution of a traditional interwoven surface to mimic its structural ...

A whole-grammar implementation of shape grammars for designers
Artificial Intelligence for Engineering Design, Analysis and Manufacturing, 2018AbstractI present an implementation of shape grammars that is aimed at supporting designers. It has two parts: a grammar editor and a stand-alone interpreter. The editor is the modeling application Rhinoceros3d using Python scripts. The interpreter is general, is three-dimensional, and supports subshape detection.

Shape grammars are classified into different types according to restrictions on rules. The predictabilities of the outcomes and behaviors of these different types of shape grammars are examined. Understanding the predictabilities of grammars is central to the successful design of shape grammars in creative design applications.

Classifications of Shape Grammars
2017Since shape grammars were first described about forty five years ago, several types of grammars have emerged. The goal of this paper is to provide a framework that gathers together the main existing types of grammars. The categorization is preceded by a glossary of 19 terms related to shape grammars.

Shape and Shape Grammars: A Pictorial Model
1975This study deals with the definition of shape, relations on shares, and the generation of shapes by shape grammars. The development in this chapter is pictorial. The formal counterparts of the ideas presented here are given in Chapter 2.

Shape and Shape Grammars: A Formal Model
1975The formal counterparts of the pictorial models of shape and shape grammars presented in Chapter 1 are developed in this chapter. Formal definitions for 2-dimensional, rectilinear shapes and shape grammars generating languages of 2-dimensional, rectilinear shapes are given. The presentation of this chapter is self-contained.
