Description

The Sprawl Repair Manual by Galina Tachieva offers a practical guide to repairing typical sprawl elements in suburbia. This step-by-step design process aims to re-balance and re-urbanize suburbs into more sustainable patterns, focusing on design, regulation, and incentives. By drawing on over two decades of experience, the book provides clear methodologies for implementing sprawl repair interventions, some of which are radical but all of which can produce positive results. The techniques are illustrated both in two- and three-dimensional formats, making it a valuable resource for those looking to transform their community into more human-scale, sustainable elements. This manual is a single-volume reference for fixing sprawl, incorporating changes into the regulatory system, and implementing repairs through incentives and permitting strategies.
