Abstract
It is often easier to model a shape by giving its properties rather than describing it explicitly. Thus, we are interested in methods which allow us to create shapes automatically by only giving a set of properties. We propose a certain number of thoughts on the creation of objects achieved by the gluing together of elementary polyhedra. The formal approach that we develop is based on an exploration of the universe of polyhedral shapes. We also discuss techniques to automatically compute viewpoints, which emphasize the properties of the structures which have been created. These methods are one of the advantages of such a modeling.
