The UK Police initiative Secured by Design has launched a new online design resource to aid developers, architects and planners of commercial properties.
The interactive guide sits alongside the residential guide launched last year, and aims to highlight best practice solutions to ‘design out crime’ in the planning stages of property developments.
The guide, which is free to use on the Secured by Design website, was developed by architecture and graphic design studio Re-Format, to allow professionals to explore the principles of ‘designing out crime’ within a fictional 3D neighbourhood containing both residential and commercial properties.
