The project uses meta-heuristics and optimization algorithms to continue the research of Romanian-Cuban artist Sandú Darié on the spatial distribution of structures based on initial design constraints (Darié, 1960). To this end, a software (DBhouse) was implemented, which allows single-line descriptions to be obtained from two-dimensional diagrams, in an iterative manner. The diagrams made represent some of the most difficult social problems to address in Cuba. At the time of presentation, the viewer is exhorted to find their own solutions to the diagrams.
