Abstract The purpose of this study is to analyze the architectural characteristics of plan composition by using shape grammar theory and to define the formal composition principles. The study selected Peter Eisenman's House series for the analyses and verified he used some kind of formal composition principles which were based on the floor plan comosition rule in the subjects. The study simulated the process of plan compositions by using ObjectARX in??AutoCAD and proved that it is effective to create various alternatives with repetitive usages in the design activities.
