ABSTRACT:
A system, method, apparatus and product for designing, on a display device, a geometric shape is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of displaying an initial set of similarly structured model exemplars on a display device, selecting a chosen set of models from the initial set of similarly structured model exemplars to apply to a model mix, mixing the set of models to form a currently displayed shape, providing on the display device at least one selectable feature for manipulating the currently displayed shape, and applying at least one constraint of the selectable feature to the currently displayed shape to update the currently displayed shape into a new geometric shape design.
