This projects presents an ongoing applied research on the development of a computational design tool addressing planning deficiencies in the city ofAddis Ababa, Ethiopia. Because of increasing population pressure and a lack of planning resources, Addis Ababa is clearly in need of new efficient planning solutions. The tool poposed utilizes and combines different generative design methods in order to increase the efficiency of planning and construction pocesses. The paper discusses design goals and the implementation strategy involved.
