N2  - This chapter focuses on crime prevention in relation to architecture as a discipline and as built
material environment. It discusses earlier research and presents developments from the EU
project ?Resilient Infrastructure and Building Security? (RIBS). In the chapter, we insist on the
term ?architecture? (instead of the ostensibly more neutral term ?built environment?) as
historical, social, aesthetical and cultural values ought to be considered in crime prevention
discussions. The chapter begins with an overview of the main principles and theoretical
developments in the field of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED). This is
followed by a section illustrating important contributions that architects have made to the
instantiation of criminological principles. The last section of the chapter presents computational
tools that have been developed to support architects in designing more secure and more resilient
buildings. We conclude with critically examining and discussing what contribution these
elements have made to enhance and nuance CPTED concepts, methods and practices.
