BRIAN O’LOONEY’S INCREMENTS OF NEIGHBORHOOD

A COMPENDIUM OF BUILT TYPES FOR WALKABLE AND VIBRANT COMMUNITIES 

This fresh book shares the secret sauce for building efficient, sustainable and viable cites.

Think of this as a cookbook for urban design. 

You can flip to the section that shares facts, solutions and images of what you want to prepare that day. 

Just like the dessert baker doesn’t have to read all the meatloaf recipes, the architect tackling missing middle issues doesn’t have to read every chapter on parking, high rises or suburbia. 

O’Looney’s “recipes” share images of plans, at-grade photos, aerial images, under construction shots, views from different angles – providing an easy path from raw idea to appetizing built environment. 

Architecture impacts every one of us because it impacts every aspect of our daily lives.

A veteran architect shares his passion – in words and images – for the architecture of democracy and inclusion. 

If you’ve ever listened to an architect or planner explaining a building type or neighborhood style – but couldn’t picture exactly what they were talking about – this is your book.

Thousands of clear images plain English details provide an everyman’s guide to the complex world of placemaking.
