The process of designing simulates the evolutionary process at the genotype level. Structures of designed objects are represented by means of graphs as genotypes. This representation of genotypes forces new interesting extensions of genetic operators. The modified crossover operator is the major computational engine of genetic algorithms. Possibilities of application of evolutionary methods and graph transformations in industrial design are presented. Our approach is illustrated by examples from the case study of chair design with the use of an evolutionary graph-based design-system.
