The paper explores the possibilities of defining geometry and its behaviors with using ESO digital tools in an integrated structural and architectural design. It is an response to the current needs geared towards sustainability, combining ecological and economic efficiency. The first part of the paper defines the Evolutionary Structural Optimization tools, which were developed specifically for engineering purposes using finite element analysis as a framework. The development of ESO has led to several variations which are all briefly discussed (Additive ESO, Bi-directional ESO, Extended ESO). The second part presents results of using these tools in structural and architectural design. Actual building projects which involve optimization as a part of the original design process will be presented (Crematorium in Kakamigahara Gifu, Japan, 2006 SANAA?s Learning Centre, EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland 2008 among others). The conclusion emphasizes, that the structural engineering and architectural design means directing attention to the solutions, which are used by Nature, designing works optimally shaped and forming their own environments. Contemporary digital methods make the simulation of such processes possible, and thus enable us to refer back to the empirical methods of previous generations.
