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. date: 2018-11-27 date_type: published publisher: Routledge official_url: https://www.crcpress.com/Routledge-Handbook-of-Crime-Science/Wortley-Sidebottom-Tilley-Laycock/p/book/9780415826266 full_text_type: other language: eng verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1649612 isbn_13: 9780415826266 lyricists_name: Borrion, Herve lyricists_id: HBORR81 actors_name: Austen, Jennifer actors_id: JAUST66 actors_role: owner full_text_status: restricted place_of_pub: London, UK book_title: Routledge Handbook of Crime Science edition: 1st editors_name: Wortley, R editors_name: Sidebottom, A editors_name: Tilley, N editors_name: Laycock, G citation: Borrion, H; Koch, D; (2018) Architecture.
