planners, and housing managers on designing to deter crime. While
every estate and neighbourhood has different problems which require
unique solutions, the process which leads to the solutions will be
the same.The first three chapters review the various theories of
crime prevention through design, and abstract from them a series of
six key principles which can be applied to all housing projects.
The remaining five chapters outline the practical application of
these principles in the assessment, design and construction
processes.The text of this book has been compiled and updated from
two educational packages produced by the Institute of Advanced
Architectural Studies and the Safe Neighbourhoods Unit. These were
Safe as Houses (1988) and Safer Neighbourhoods (1989). Videos
produced as part of those educational packages are available for
use with this book.
