The work aims to investigate what can be the possible perspectives with the use of algorithms and digital tools in creative architecture, specifically in the process of design and shape control. Moreover, shapes are determined by size and, therefore, by numbers that, accordingly, govern all art forms, including architecture. There is always a relationship between architecture and mathematics, both in conception and transcription.

To improve environmental wellbeing and productivity, design innovation focuses on human's use-process, evolving individual space to flexible and specialized ones, according to the users` tasks - activity-based. BIM models supports sophisticated behaviours' simulation such as energy, acoustics, although it is not able to manage space use-processes.
