Abstract
One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for evaluating productive congestion within an architectural space design. The technique includes generating a space analysis graph for the architectural space design. The technique further includes determining a traversal value for at least a first node of a plurality of nodes included in the space analysis graph, determining a centroid of the plurality of nodes, determining a path within the space analysis graph from at least the first node to the centroid, and determining a productive congestion metric based on at least the path from the first node to the centroid and the traversal value of the first node.
