Why not solve the problem of gerrymandering by getting rid of the "winner takes all" property?

E.g. instead of having 100 districts selecting 1 representative using the winner-takes-all principle, which are very sensitive with respect to gerrymandering, make 10 districts where each one sends 10 representatives, where the distribution of representatives approximates the distribution of the submitted votes.

This should decrease the problem a lot.
