Systems and methods of generating and evaluating a habitat interior design are provided. Generating a conceptual habitat layout includes defining one or more habitat requirements, generating a plurality of physical subsystems and geometric dimensions of the physical subsystems based on the one or more habitat requirements, and assigning a spatial position to each of the plurality of physical subsystems. Evaluating the conceptual habitat layout includes identifying and quantifying a plurality of habitat constraints, determining a plurality of quantifiable habitat layout evaluation criteria and a plurality of utility functions, calculating the plurality of utility functions for the conceptual habitat layout, and calculating a acceptability value of the conceptual habitat layout based on the plurality of utility functions. A layout having a highest acceptability value is determined from a plurality of generated conceptual habitat layout and a file configured to provide a blueprint of the layout is created.
