Crime prevention by design
Crime prevention by design is the idea that the level of crime is influenced by the built environment and, by careful design of this built environment, the level of crime can be reduced. This reduction can be accomplished by either addressing physical or social and individual sources of threat, or both.
Description
The idea that crime could be influenced by the design of the built environment was based on the more limited idea of defensible space and further developed in work of Elizabeth Wood, Jane Jacobs and Schlomo Angel.
Two principles of crime prevention by design are designing in and designing out.
Crime prevention by design methods
CPTED
CPTED (Crime prevention through environmental design) has a long history, dating back to the 1970s.
It employs three design strategies to reduce crime:
- Natural surveillance, called surveillance by the public in Securipedia
- Natural access control, which is covered in the measures Directing traffic flows and Access control
- Natural territorial reinforcement, which relates mainly to the securipedia measure of Ownership
In addition, it employs two strategies not related to design:
- Maintenance
- Activity support
