Abstract | The concept of rehabilitation of criminals is a vital component of contemporary justice system, that focuses on reduction of recidivism rates and reintegrate the offenders as contributing citizens in society. Although the vocational, educational and other psychological methods are well-known incorporations in penitentiaries facilitating rehabilitation; architecture design as a tool offering various design principles that foster rehabilitation are yet to be explored. Thus, this research aims to explore various design principles and their impact as rehabilitative measure in prisons; emphasizing factors including spatial arrangement, incorporation of green spaces, use of natural light, bifurcated private and communal areas, etc. Delving into case study of Norway’s Halden Prison, this research highlights how therapeutic environments can promote skill-development and positive behavior amongst inmates. Key findings suggest that thoughtfully designed spaces promote dignity, reduce stress, and motivate involvement in rehabilitation activities. The paper concludes by summarizing all the design aspects that foster rehabilitation in prisons not hampering the security of the institution. |
