This captivating book delves into the fascinating intersection of architecture and security, exploring innovative strategies for effective crime prevention and counterterrorism through the transformative power of the built environment. While security professionals tirelessly endeavor to alleviate our fears of criminal activities, and methodologies such as Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) have proven their significance in shaping crime prevention over the past five decades, it is disheartening to note that many built environment professionals remain unaware of these invaluable strategies.
The foundation of this book rests on the belief that architects and planners hold a pivotal role in achieving realistic, efficient, and lasting outcomes, ultimately contributing to a safer world. It endeavors to present these strategies in a user-friendly manner, encouraging professionals to seamlessly integrate security considerations into their design process, much like a natural extension of their expertise.
By combining international case studies, including iconic landmarks such as One World Trade Centre, New York; the WHO Headquarters Extension Building, Geneva; and the Akshardham Temple, New Delhi, alongside numerous examples drawn from the authors' extensive professional experience, this book offers a comprehensive and systematic approach to integrating security into built environment design. It is tailored to be easily embraced by architects, planners, security professionals, and policymakers, fostering a collaborative effort in creating secure and resilient environments for all.
