Helvepolis - Urban Design in Vitro!

Object-oriented urban design-framework for Processing
In this module, we become urban planner, architect and flaneur at once!
We formulate our own algorithmic building-law and examine the effects in our artificial cities!
Our goal is no less than building rome in a day. We are exploring the diversity and the potential of cities via scripting.
Data abstraction, encapsulation, modularity, polymorphism, and inheritance are brought to urban design.
