This community planning guide presents data and observations from surveys and on-site meetings with the community, with a focus on the impact of infrastructure on the built environment and landscapes.
After a brief history of the village and a physical analysis—relating to the built form, transportation, unplanned spaces, etc.—the guide discusses routes of exploration and potential proposals for (re)development. A few design projects complete the picture by imagining examples for each of the proposed strategies.
