The aim of the presented program for computer-based assisting the preliminary (preparatory) phase of the architectural process is to intensify and facilitate architectural design activity. This program is a specialized tool, which - in the preliminary phase of the architectural process -facilitates methodically creating variants of forms of the architectural project. It is the first computer-based assisting program which intervenes in the creative preliminary (preparatory) phase of architectural design. As main information carrier in the program the definition of "Bezier" curves has been applied. In the program, a change of definition of shapes takes place into their mathematical description by Bezier curves [1,2]. In the described program the combinatorial method is used, facilitating the creation of forms of the architectural project. This is a well-known and generally applied method in technique, called method of morphological analysis [3-5]. This creative method was utilized, in an intuitive way, by Le Corbusier, architect. The presented program came into being, indeed, through imitating what was doing and achieving Le Corbusier. In the program the possibility is provided of a creative utilization of existing plastic artistic compositions preferred by the designer-architect. Design decisions in this program are made by the architect. The designer draws on the display monitor, for example, horizontal projections of architectural forms of the being designed object, forming in this way new arrangements and modifications of forms that were earlier selected and recorded in the library of forms.
