Résumé

Supporting peri-urbanisation
draws more inspiration from midwifery than Pygmalion. It
is important to encourage connectivity, preserve rough
edges (street vendors, waste land, mixed roads), guide shape
(by differential density), produce multiple drafts of transformable
walkways in order to fix morphologically afterwards
those adopted by the residents (Mancebo, 2003).
There is of course a bias in this approach: the idea that
towns/cities evolve towards their own shape, which it is
pointless trying to thwart.
