Good, now teach it Pattern Language.

Christopher Alexander FTW!

Reminds me of similar work done with genetic algorithms: https://www.joelsimon.net/evo_floorplans.html

Also reminds me of Joris Dorman's cyclic dungeon work for the game Unexplored: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wvkTT-6P3Q

A similar model is #HouseGAN done by researchers Nelson Nauata & Chin-Yi Cheng at Autodesk Research in 2019.

Could be cool to expand this to electoral map building. Then you don't even need to manually draw the lines. Publish the loose constraints & the source data & everyone can regenerate their own electoral map to confirm no funny business.
