Generating Form

This is an example of a very mathematical-sounding way of generating form, yet ultimately probably involved a lot of highly subjective decisions. With the concept of "Seeing Eye Architecture" - an intriguing concept! - this team used isosceles triangles developed from the golden section to generate a form composed of like units, though with each unit retaining its own unique character (as in within the species of dogs, or any other species). DNA and the golden section certainly provided a starting point for this concept, but the actual decisions of size, rotation, perforation, and composition seem fairly arbitrary. But is this a bad thing? If the overall concept is well represented (though I'm not sure it is here, but that is somewhat beside the point), does it matter whether a rule system was created and whether that system was rigorously adhered to? Perhaps the use of that rule-set as simply a generator of ideas is enough. Or perhaps that would delve architecture too deeply into subjective artsy-ness, endangering its status as a professional occupation.
