However, most of the existing computational design tools are focused on the latest stages of the design process and especially directed to drafting operations. Conceptual design tools that support the designer in the creative and inventive early stages of the design project are still in their early development. Shape grammars (SG) were introduced by George Stiny in the 1970s, allowing the generation of designs according to a set of predefined rules. SG computational implementations have the potential to answer the need for tools that can assist designers, architects, and artists in the creative process, offering design alternatives, stimulating new ideas and encouraging the search for new design generation processes. Acknowledging this potential, a user-friendly interface seems essential for the adoption of these tools. Taking Scott Chase's interaction model as background, the aim of the present investigation is to define guidelines and begin to design a graphical-user interface for SG implementations. Inspection methods of human\u2013computer interaction (HCI) were used to analyze existing SG implementations and understand usability issues. Subsequently, HCI ergonomic criteria for interface evaluation were adapted to establish guidelines for the design of an SG implementation interface, called IM-sqi. These guidelines take into account different user groups, adjustable interaction modes for each user group, and the nature of each task performed by the user.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0890060417000695","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,30]],"date-time":"2018-05-30T06:20:14Z","timestamp":1527661214000},"page":"24-39","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["IM-sgi: an interface model for shape grammar implementations"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Joana","family":"Tching","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Joaquim","family":"Reis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Alexandra","family":"Paio","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,5,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0890060417000695_ref11","volume-title":"IBM System Application Architecture, Common User Access: Advanced Interface Design Guide","year":"1989"},{"key":"S0890060417000695_ref20","first-page":"35","article-title":"Ergonomic criteria for design of the software interface between human and computer","author":"Ravden","year":"1988","journal-title":"CIM International Journal of Computer Applications in Technology"},{"key":"S0890060417000695_ref22","first-page":"27","article-title":"Decyphering human factors recommendations","author":"Scapin","year":"1990","journal-title":"Ergonomics of Hybrid Automated Systems II"},{"key":"S0890060417000695_ref27","unstructured":"Tching J , Reis J and Paio A (2013) Shape grammars for creative decisions in the architectural project.
