Topology optimization

Hi all, I am looking at designing a houseboat, which is effectively the dimensions of a shipping container. We would like to minimize the material weight while maintaining the structural integrity of the building fabric. I’m assuming that topology optimization is what I am after. Looking to the works completed on the Airbus partition divider by the Living; could anyone recommend a GH library that will do something similar to OptiStruct? Could Pufferfish work in a similar way, or should I be looking at Ameba? I guess I just don’t know where to start with it. Thanks, Chris.
