Abstract As of March 2019, there are 65,222 inmates throughout all 38 correctional facilities in the country. The actual official capacity of prison system is 45, 640. The influx of 20, 000 populations tell that half of prison in the country are overcrowded and in bad condition because it had to cater number of people for more than what it supposed to. About 55% of total population in prisons are drug offenders, people who are dealing with drug addictions and drug trafficking. Drug offenders are mostly young people aged between 19 to 39 year old. Malaysia is about to embark a game-changer policy on Decriminalisation of Drug Addicts and Addictions; yet this is not to be mistaklen for legalising drug. What is meant with decriminalisation of drug addicts and addictions is the removal of criminal penalties for possesing a small quantitiy of drugs for personal use, as opposed to those who are involved in trafficking drugs. Be that as it may, drug use and addiction is admittedly a complex chronic relapsing a medical condition. In understanding the perspective of a drug offender, there ae many factors that lead to someone to drug use and addictions. It could be a genetic predisposition, surrounding environment, poverty, family breakdown, school, peer pressure - all can make someone to initiate using drugs. If someone continue to take drugs, biological changes will start happening in their brain, therefore it is not so easy to reverse that biological change. Certainly, putting them in prison is not going to change that. An addict shall be treated as a patient and not as a criminal, whose his addiction is a disease to be cured with amount of medical treatment rather than punishment. Drug decriminalisation will indeed be a critical next step towards achieving a rational drug policy that put science (education) and public health before punishment and incarceration. Decades of evidence has clearly demonstrated that decriminalisation is a sensible path forward that would reap vast human and fiscal benefits, while protecting families and communities. It is a problem when the age group that spends the most time behind bars is 20-24 year old, which is the median age for college students. Majority of them are youths, if this problem is not curbed, it would be resulting in the country losing the young workforce because they (youths) should be the ones who are are productive in developing the country, not involving in social problem due to drug addictions. Therefore, this proposal aim to address the outflow of young drug offenders and combat the challenges of recidivism. This is done through the implementation of a new typology of correctional facility that symbiotically merges the programs and spaces for incarceration, education and health. This new system of higher education of incarceation will promote ample rehabilitation, and the creation of a new productive member of the society.

Prison Population Explosion
In 2014, Malaysia established the Special Tactical Intelligence Narcotics Group, or STING, as part as the country’s war efforts on drugs. In some countries, this is a war fought with extreme violence and resulting in huge number of deaths, including those caught in the crossfire. “The failed war on drugs has empowered organized crime, destabilized governments, violated human rights and devastated human lives everywhere,” said Fernando Henrique Cardoso, the former president of Brazil.
2013, Home Ministry declares, ‘War on Drug’
Likewise, the number of drug-related arrests (averaging 44,000 cases per year) showed no clear declining or rising trend from 2005 to 2012. The exceptional year was 2013 with 128,412 number of arrests, 3 times higher than that in 2012. Whether this high number of arrests is an indication of the coming trend or merely a blimp remains to be seen.

Punishment or Rehabilitation “ As architects, we can be far better employed providing the spaces needed for social nurturing, healing, and reintegration instead, the money spent on prison construction steals the resources needed for these central social goals.”
Punishment ? There are several things that need to be considered whilst talking about the punishing or rehabilitative system. First and foremost, it is vital a system acknowledges human freedom, it also recognizes significant limitations on punishment scope and intensity. Moreover, it recognizes the limited power of hard treatment. Otherwise, it abandons communication, and expects no response from offenders. Excessive cruelty may “turn men into puppets who are creatures of their manipulator”. Similarly, punishment cannot automatically reform prisoners because each person responds differently to suffering. Some find meaning in it, while others see it as pointless. State agencies have little knowledge of offenders inner lives and possess scare resources with which to influence them. They are in limited position to understand how individuals will react to moral change. It may stop some from offending, but cannot by itself compel them to change their motal understanding. It may produce personality changes that disappear when hard treatment ceases. Punishment is only “one among a number of influences which in combination can work moral change”. It will hopefully bring about change as it addresses the person as a moral being. Change requires that both authorities and offenders act. Offenders must freely engage the moral mesage they receive. They must also recognize the authority of those punishing them. Authorities must refrain from the powerful urge to brutalize others. They must institutionalize policies that recognize the person’s humanity. However, we cannot say how offenders will exercise freedom; they can be dishonest and pretend moral reform. They can make moral progress, only to fall back on previous bad habits. They may recognize the limited authority of the states right to punish them. Engaging in acts or resistance like the hunger strike, they reject the states moral message. Finally it rejects cynicism pervading many contemporary approaches to crime. In its place it retains hope that punishment can

“ Comphrehensive rehabilitative programs focus on such areas and allow inmates to see the consequences of their actions more clearly, thereby lessening the CONCLUSION likelihood of reconviction for another offense.” Rehabilitation ?
To help shift the focus from punishment to rehabilitation, studies have generated a massive literature documenting the importance of child abuse, poverty, early exposure to substance abuse and other risk factors for criminal behaviour. The findings suggest that individual-centered approaches to crime prevention need to be complemented by community-based apporaches. When properly implemented, work programs, education and psychotherapy can ease prisoners’ transitions to the free world. The researchers as well have demonstrated the power of the prison environment to shape behaviour, ofthen to the detriment of both prisoners and prison workers. Rehabilitation can be inspirational and motivating, co-opting with rehabilitation, educational and substance abuse programs helps positive reinforcement instead of punishing bad behaviour only : eg. extending prison time. Installing fear into inmates might work as prisoners would not desire to come back to prison, but a negative psychological impact gives them no choice, because thay are unable to live in the outside world and cope.
The skeptical public has a tendency to not agree with rehabilitative means for incarceration. The common belief is that rehabilitation costs more than incarceration which is why the public is skeptical toward the idea of installing these programs. However, rehabilitative programs tend to be more cost efficient as it reduces the recidivism rates saving tax payers monies and giving them a safer environment to live in both financially and morally, providing treatment and education with successful and contributive citizen. However, punishment may also have an effect on inmates as it makes prisons as undesirable place; this is already inflicted throught the loss of freedom and loss of real identity as well as the spatial limitations. Nevertheless, without treatment, prisons serve as breeding grounds for more criminals and future act of crime.

Pudu Prison Seige, 1986
The Pudu Prison siege began on 17 October 1986 and ended six days later on 22 October. The siege began when six prisoners led by Jimmy Chua held a doctor and a laboratory technician hostage at the now demolished Pudu Prison, Kuala Lumpur. On 22 October, the hostage crisis at the prison ended without bloodshed when the Malaysian police counter-terrorism group Special Actions Unit (UTK) of PGK stormed the prison and rescued the two hostages. And later in the day that Jimmy and gang put forward 4 demands for the hostages’ release. 1.For all their sentences to be reduced. 2.For one policeman that had been involved in the arrest of one of them, to be handed over to them. 3.For the media to be allowed to interview them. 4. For the deputy director of the jail (who was the officer in charge of investigating Jimmy’s case) to be brought to see him. AFTERMATH On 18 April 1987, six men including Chua were tried in the High Court on charges of kidnapping a doctor and a technician in Pudu Prison. According to Magistrate C.R Lopez, who conducted a preliminary inquiry into the charges, there was sufficient evidence against them to proceed to trial. They were alleged to have held Dr. Radzi Jaafar and Dr. Abd Aziz Abd Majid in the prison clinic and to have demanded to be released unconditionally from prison as their ransom. Jimmy Chua and his gang were charged and convicted under Section 3 (1) of the Kidnapping Act of 1961 which carries a maximum punishment of death upon conviction. They were hanged on 10 October 1989.

Psychological Effects on Inmates cronic anxiety + nervousness headache
insomnia lethargy or chronic tiredness nightmares heart palpitations confused thought processes irrational anger
social withdrawal violent fantasies emotional flatness mood swings difficulty of concentration and memory
chronic depression feeling of overall deterioration
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT In solitary, even after a short amoung of time, an individual is likely to gravitate into something called as “mental fog,” in which alertness, attention, and concentrarion all become impaired. After some time in solitary, an individual is likely to be increasingly incapable of processing external surroundings, and often becomes “hyper responsive” to these environments. A good example would be, that a sudden noise or the brightness of the flashlight can become intensely unpleasant. Over time, with the absence of background noise or different variation of sound, any kind of constant noise from the environment can become noxious and irritating. The sound or smell coming from a neighbouring cell, bodily sensation, structural or mechanical noise and even the flourescent lights could become a trigger to the mind. Tortured by it, such individuals are unable to stop dwelling on it. In solitary confinment, and ordinary environment becomes intensely unpleasant and small irritations become aggravating.
“You get sensitive to noise, the plumbing system. Someone in the tier above me pushes the button on the faucet... It’s too loud, gets on your nerves. I can’t stand it . I start to holler.” In solitary, there is no sense of time. No windows allowing the person to know the difference between day and night, thus the person become irregular. Even being moved to another cell for an hour still does not give the inmate the experience natural of daylight. Inmates are very unlikely to have any restful sleep due to the constant light, the slamming steel door sound, other noises and flashlights shining their faces. The prisoners themselves do not realize the deterioration that occurs. Many are extremely defensive about the psychiatric problem; they tended to rationalize away their symptoms, avoided talking about them, or denied or distorted their existence at all. Psychologists are able to analyze these interviews and their symptoms-even under the prisoner’s denial. For example, one inmate was unable to describe the events of the several days surrounding his wrist-slashing, nor could he describe his thoughts or feelings at the time.

Effects of Space to the Psyche Physical torture
could be manifested from the self harm as well as prisoner to prisoner violence, unofficial violence, sexual assault and/ or guard to prisoner violence.
Emotional torture
can be seen from degrading inmates as well as discomfort inmates experience of time passing, which result in the feeling of meaninglessness. To add to, the feeling of dislocation, with barelt any chance for outside contact- due to the location of the prisons can also accumulate to this emotion.
Spatial torture
is evaluated to be a number of composites. Partially the loss of change of locations makes architecture have a strong negative affect to the brain. Each detail and the environment becomes you. A negative, powerless space makes you feel psychologically inferior.
Architecture shapes our thoughts and actions positively and negatively. We feel elevated or moved to action by its presence. Obeserving our responses we notice patterns reflecting our self-confidence. A building may also aid in self-reminiscence, however as much as it may ease the mind, there is a fine line on where it would harm the mind. For example, monasteries have a similar set up as prisons. They are communities that live in a secluded institution. The difference is the quality of spitituality given through thr rehabilitation through the soul, and the infringement with the force of psychological decay in the two institutions. By observing the features of the architecture, we understand our vague sense that prisons express ideas or values. They are not just structures, but one needs to consider the people operating and occupying these structures. Prison architects design their works to express their or their client’s sense of purpose of imprisonment, this only satisfies part of the architecture.
Solitary confinement as a space The only thing about living in solitary is being kept away to retract violence: hence prisoners are placed in singular cells. However, there is a tendency that the SHU units are located away from the main prison complex, or in the basement of the system cutting them off from the rest of the complex. In some cases, the ventilation of the space is low as the door is completely solid. This then makes the prisoner feel claustrophobis and be consumed in spaces. This were many of the above stated mental affects develop. Although solitary confinmenet should not be used more than 15 days, it is important to notice that the law allowing solitary confinement will not change in their future. To come up with solutions of how solitary confinement could be more spiritually enhances as well as become an inspirational place it is important to allow inmates access to daylight, and views. Ventilation and visual connection as well as sound are also very important to address. Even if it not you or a loved one who is experiencing the prison system, once still should care about what is happening because not evryone who is incarcerated is guilty. The Standford experiment shouwed that even the most psychological normal people can turn into a power struggle of their position and have sadistic tendency. The evil environment induces that guards tend to impose their power unjustly to inmates- however, and also has many guards feel discomfort, distress, helplessness and guilt. The torture that is implemented on inmates can be categorized to physical, emotional and spatial. Overall, we all take the prison systems differently as we may come from the different backgrounds and tend to relate to one party more than another. To the offender punishment symbolizes internal disorder by denouncing his act and administering hard treatment. To the victim, it reaffirms his value as a spiritual being, disavowing the victimizers perverse moral message through the incarceration of the offender. To the community, punishment signals that others should refrain from committing evil acts and the ones experience such deserve what they get. To come to a conclusion that helps both the inmate, the quality of life that surrounds us and the community, it is essential to try as much s one can to help prisoners find a moreal message through incaceration: understanding their mistake and becoming an asset to the community rather than a drawback. In my project I will prove on how this can be achieved through spatial, physical and emotional.

Decriminalization of Drugs and Drug Addicts. +
There are greater calls today for a change in how we approach our fight against drugs, considering even whether we should decriminalize drug use or go as far as legalizing drugs, both of which are controversial issues because they run against our notion that something harmful like drugs must be of course be prohibited. Malaysia in particular needs to reevaluate its drug policy to one that is more evidence-based. Changes however will be difficult and have to be done in stages. Decriminalizing drug use or providing free drugs clinic require much planning to ensure that drug addicts receive effective treatments for their addiction and that they can function as normal and contribute positively to the society. Money, rather spent to arrest, try, and incarcerate drug addicts, could be used instead for their treatment. In the 1980s, Portugal had one of the highest drug users in the world, and by 1990, there were one drug addict for every 100 persons in the country. Portugal had tried tough law enforcement but saw little returns. Out of desperation, Portugal chose a radical approach: they decriminalize all drug use, the first country to do so, in 2001. While using and carrying drugs (up to certain limits) were legal, selling and making drugs remained illegal in Portugal. One key benefit decriminalization did was to remove the social stigma of drug users, causing addicts to voluntarily seek treatment.

How Portugal Successfully Tackled its Drug Crisis In July 2001, a new law maintained the status of illegality for using or possessing any drug for personal use without authorization. The offense was changed from a criminal one, with prison a possible punishment, to an administrative one if the amount possessed was no more than a ten-day supply of that substance. This was in line with the de facto Portuguese drug policy before the reform. Drug addicts were then to be aggressively targeted with therapy or community service rather than fines or waivers. Even if there are no criminal penalties, these changes did not legalize drug use in Portugal. Possession has remained prohibited by Portuguese law, and criminal penalties are still applied to drug growers, dealers and traffickers. Despite this, the law was still associated with a nearly 50% decrease in convictions and imprisonments of drug traffickers from 2001 to 2015. Individuals found in possession of small quantities of drugs are issued summons. The drugs are confiscated, and the suspect is interviewed by a “Commission for the Dissuasion of Drug Addiction” (Comissões para a Dissuasão da Toxicodependência – CDT). These commissions are made up of three people: A social worker, a psychiatrist, and an attorney.The dissuasion commission have powers comparable to an arbitration committee, but restricted to cases involving drug use or possession of small amounts of drugs. There is one CDT in each of Portugal’s 18 districts.

It’s good people who have lost their jobs, family, homes, their freedoms to the state not because they hurt anyone but solely because they choose to use drug instead of another. Legally regulating and taxing most of the drugs that are criminalized would radically reduce the crime, violence, corruptions and black markets, and the problem of unadulterated and unregulated drugs, and improve public safety, and allow taxpayers resources to be developed to more useful purposes. In fact, the markets in marijuana, cocaine, heroine, are global commodities markets just like the global market in alcohol, cigarette, coffee, sugar and many other things where there is a demand, there is a supply. People tend to think of prohibition as the ultimate form of regulation when in fact it represents the abdication of regulation with criminals filling the void. Since Portuguese government transformed the policy on drugs from penalised to decriminalised in 2001, it has dedicated to building an organization and movement of people who believe that everyone in the country need to turn one back on the failed prohibitions of the past and embraced the policies grounded in science, compassion, health and human rights, where people who come from across the political spectrum and every other spectrum as well where people who love drugs, people who hate drugs to believe that the War on Drugs has got to end.

Substitution treatment is today widely available in Portugal, through public services such as specialized treatment centers, health centers, hospitals and pharmacies as well as NGOs and non-profit organizations. From 2000 to 2008, the number of people in Portugal receiving substitution treatment increased from 6040 to 25 808 (24 312 in 2007), 75% of whom were in methadone maintenance treatment. The remaining patients received high dosage buprenorphine treatment. A national treatment monitoring system is being developed but has not yet been implemented in all regions. National routine statistics from outpatient centres on substitution clients are available (for clients in methadone and buprenorphine programmes).

Prison History Architecture of Incarceration
Prison are operated on the basis of care, custody, and control. Out of these, control is the most important. Prisoners are classified by security level (type of crime) as well as by custody level (flight risk and privilege earned by good behaviour), but prisons are only classified by security level of maximum, medium, and minimum. The levels of security within a prison system are categorized differently around the world, but tend to follow a distinct pattern. Most developed countries divide prison into separate security classes depending on the inmate population and the security needed to keep them under control. Accordingly, High Security Medium Security Low Security most developed countries have classes ranging from the most secure, which typically hold violent prisoners and those judged most likely to escape, to the least, which are most often used to house non-violent offenders or those for General Security Under-trial whom more stringent security is deemed unnecessary.

History of Penal System Throughout the world a variety of institutions and program exist for different offenders, including remand centers, low, medium, and maximum security institutions and hospital facilities. Architecture has invested an important outlet in providing correctional facilities, as it moves space with the pressure of change in the penal system and also the perception of general public about a prison.

History of Incarceration With the change of perception, prisons have drastically changed over the years. Development of prison design from the dungeopn of yore to specialized institutions today has not been very consistent. There have been long stretches of declivity and brief boost of reforms in prison architecture.

[FIGURE] View into corridor (left) and cell (right) in Alcatraz Prison England had always been one step forward in the earliest noticeable of state retributions. In middle age, it was decreed house any convict. At this time, Europe had many castles and dungeons owned by any person who had significant power and politics in the state.
Dutch Work House Brought more control on crime and violence. The basic aim of this was to keep the inmates busy and prvide them with work for their learning. This was more influential in the world : Germany, Belgium and Scandinavia. Most of such institutres were work house having 9 rooms to house 4 to 12 inmates each of about 5.2 x 3.2 sqm area each. Rasp House, the first and the most famous one at Amsterdam which was found in 1595.
In 15th - 16th century, such places had increased enormously and also gave foundations to the famous Seven Tower of Constantinople and Castle of Spielberg.
The Rasphuis drawing back then in 1595. In 1815 it was closed, and in 1892 the building was demolished to make way for a swimming pool.
[FIGURE] Seven Towers of Constantinople
Packing in Concrete Till late 16th century, there being no proper goals for the criminals, city gates were modified a little into captivate the prisoners. In 1557, Bride Wells were started as the special institution to provide employment to beggars, vagrants and criminals. Original Bride well at Petworth, Sussex was in use till 1774, it had two rooms (5.5m x 2.7m approx.), which were too small for the number pf prisoners it had housed. It had no shutters in the windows, no courts, no chimney. The only underlying principle of these is a secure boundary whose penertations are controlled by gates.
First Cellular Prison in the World The prison of St. Micheal in Rome designed by Carlo Fontona in 1703-1704 was the first ever cellular prison. It was conceived as a reformatory. It had twenty cells to each of the three storeys, ten on each side of the workshop. Each cell had a lavatory. This prison influenced the architecture for the next 200 years in prison reform. The thought behinf its design was to do cellular separation so that each prisoner gets space to reflect on his misdeed in solitude. In 1773, a drastic development took place : this development was mainly brought by the construction o f Cellular Prison at Ghent : It was the first radial prison in the world. The pioneer idea behind this was to enable the prison staff in corridor to have a clear view of the prisoners. The need of security, adequate light and air were also entertained by the octagonal plan with rectangu-
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
rectangular cells radially aligned from the center. This also helped to classify the inmates as juvenile, habitual, women and etc. Later half of 18th century, a new reform of transportation came in ferocity. Deportian as a form of punishment was employed by England and France. England and France had started shipping criminals to Australia, Africa and Devil’s Island. This inhuman practice of shipping got demolished after the World War II. In 1778, Blackstone Act was formed in honor of work of John Howard, Sir William Blackstone and Sir William Eden. Few of the points that it stated were: • Establishment of penitentiary houses. • Confirmed principles of separate confinements. • Needs for moral and religious spaces. • Fixed cell size : max. 3.7 x 2.4 x 3.4 m3 min. 3 x 2.1 x 2.7 m3
Theory of Panopticon Prison In 1787, Jereny Bentham carried the development of a radial layout of prison to a logical conclusion. Panopticon was primarily based on certain principles: cellular separation, safe custody, security, belief that rehabilitation is possible through seclusion. The principle of the Panopticon was that prisoners could be observed night and day, without realizing that they were being observed. The structure consisted of tiers of prison cells, arranged in a circular design. In the very centre of the circular structure was an observation tower, tall enough for the observer to be able to see the interior of each cell. The windows of the observation tower were masked so that it was not possible for prisoners to know if anyone was in the tower. An arrangement of blinds was suggested to hide the presence of any lights inside, so that prisoners could not guess whether the observation tower was staffed.

[IMAGE] Cellular Jail in Andaman,India used by thr British especially to exile political prisoners to the remote archipelago.
The psychology of the Panopticon was thus that prisoners would never be certain whether or not they were being observed. The Panopticon later became the inspiration for a number of different prison designs. It significance for Foucault was that it reflected much of the philosphy of observation that has become a guiding principle of policing in the modern state. The use of video cameras both in cities and on road employs the same principle of observation, so that the citizen is never entirely sure whether or not they are being watched. Prisons in America The first effective sign of modern prison architecture in place was the erection of a block of cells in Walnut Street Jail in 1790. Leslie Fairweather says that his was the first time America had attempted to segregate and classify prisoners for the need of rehabilitation and reform. After 1790, America played a major role in the evolution of prison designs. The evolution was a consequence of two separate and different philosophies :

1. Pennsylvania System 2. Auburn System
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
Pennsylvania System A penal method based on the principle that solitary confinement fosters penitence and encourages reformation. The idea was advocated by the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the Miseries of Public Prisons. In 1829, the Eastern State Penitentiary, on Cherry Hill in Philadelphia applied this so-called separate philosophy. Prisoners were kept in solitary confinement in cells 16feet high, nearly 12 feet long, and 7.5 feet wide (4.9x 2.7 x 2.3 m3. An exercise yard, completely enclosed to prevent cotnact among prisoners, was attached to each cell. Prisoners saw no one except institution officers and an occasional visitor. Solitary penitence, however, was soon modified to include the performance of work such as shoemaking or weaving. The Pennsylvania system spread until it predominated in European prisoners. Critics in the United States argued that it was too costly and had deterious effects on the minds of the prisoners. The Pennsylvania system was superseded in the United States by the Auburn system.

[IMAGE] Perspective view one of Pensylvania prison system. Auburn System A penal system of the 19th century in which persons worked during the day and were kept in solitary confinement at night, with enforced silence at all times. The silent system evolved during the 1820s at Auburn Prison in Auburn, NY, as an alternative to and modification of the Pennsylvania system of solitary confinement, which it gradually replaced in the United States. Later innovations at Auburn were the lockstep (marching in single file, placing the right hand on the shoulder of the man ahead, and facing toward the guard), the striped suit, two-foot extensions of the walls between cells, and special seating arrangements at meals- all designed to insure strict silence.
Eventually Pennsylvania system was adopted in Europe and Auburn system prevailed in America. Where Pennsylvanian scheme provided little light of rehabilitation and reform, Auburn system still prevailed in US for a long time probably because of overcrowding and cheaper cost of construction.
The Auburn and Pennsylvania systems were both based on a belief that criminal habits were learned from and reinforced by other criminals. In 1828, Sing-Sing beame the model of all Auburn system institutes. This prison had five tiers of inside cells and long dark cell corridors which became a curse of prison architecture for the coming centuries.

The Nineteenth Century Inheritance After centuries of brutality, squalor and corruption in prisons throughout the world, reforms during the 18th and 19th century led to gradual improvement in prison design on the whole. In 1842, the noticeable example pf Pennsylvanian system in England, the Pentonville Prison came into existence. This was an evolved radial prison which followed the design of the eastern Penitentiary, Cherry Hill. This plan ruled the prison architecture for next 50 years. English construction of radial prisons in late 19th century: 1. External wall : brick, stone or flint, 0.6 m thick 2. Internal wall : brick or stone about 350 x 450 mm thick 3. Ceillings: brick arches in two courses 4. Floorings: asphalt or 75mm York stone 5. Heating and ventilation: cold air was heated by being passed over hot water pipes and then was discharged into large ventilation flues to the cells. 6. Cells: sizes varied around 3.9 x 2.1 x 2.7 m3 and cells were generally equipped with a toilet bucket, a wash and a gas lighting fitting. 7. Windows: 1.1m long and 130mm heavily barred.
History of Malaysian Prison System During the era of British rule and until the arrival of the Japanese in 1942, penal institutions were the responsibility of the individual states’ governments with their respective regulations. In the Straits Settlements, a Superintendent based in Singapore, acted as the supervisor and inspected the institutions under his jurisdiction. First Prison in Malaya The first prison in Penang was built at Fort Cornwallis in 1790. Prior to the building, this place was a fort. Light had previously placed prisoners in the Cornwallis fortress inside a building made of native sticks. The construction of walls of stone was only built after the arrival of prisoners from India. The building materials made the prison and the city accessible from the surrounding area. The stone used was broken down by prisoners and used not only to make walls, but also to build roads and buildings around Penang. By 1803, the British had built Cornwallis prison using concrete, brick and iron. The construction of the prison was in line with the construction of the City of Cornwallis.

The Straits Settlements were the earliest to build their own prisons while the Federated Malay States did so only after the British set up a responsible department. The Taiping Prison, better known as the Taiping Gaol, the largest at the time, was built in 1879. Prisons were built with the main purpose of bringing suffering to the inmates in the hope that this would deter people from committing crimes.

Post World War II After World War II, the Prison Office was established to administer all prisons in Malaya. The post-war era saw the return of peace, and modern administrative methods were introduced. The 1948 Malayan Emergency resulted in an increase in inmate numbers, which in turn caused overcrowding in the prisons. This disrupted the development of the prison system and it was only towards the end of 1949 when peace returned that prison development could be carried out smoothly. The Prisons Ordinance 1952 and the Prisons Regulations 1953, based on the “modern treatment” concept, were introduced to replace old legislation. In 1953, the Criminal Justice Bill was passed, which abolished use of the cat-o’-nine-tails and replaced the term “penal servitude” with “prison”. Post Independence of Malaya Following Independence Day in 1957, the first Prisons Commissioner was appointed to take charge of the administration of all prisons in Malaya. In 1963, with the formation of Malaysia, prisons in Sabah and Sarawak came under the jurisdiction of the Prisons Department. On 2 November 1995, the Prison Act 1995 was introduced to replace the former Prison Act which in turn was superseded on 1 September 2000 by the Prison Regulations 2000. The previous acts and regulations had been in use for a long time, thus changes and reforms were necessary to meet current needs and demands to streamline prison management and administration. In an era of development and modernisation, the Malaysian Prison Department realises that it should not to be content with is past achievements, but should instead move forward and innovate in order to assist the prison administration in dealing with modern culture through criminology, penology and overall social control. History of Juvenile Correctional Centre in Malaysia The Henry Gurney School is a correctional institution managed by the Prisons Department to arrest juvenile offenders aged 14 to 21. Back in 1948 in the early establishment of the institute for juvenile, it was established in Muar Prison, Johor under the name of the Advance Approved School. The establishment of the school commenced with the enactment of an ordinance in 1947 which subsequently led to the formation of the Juvenile Court. The General Policy of the correctional institute at the beginning of its establishment was based on (Borstal Institution - England) 1900; to shape the attitude of personality and the responsible attitude of the inhabitants towards the perfection of a prosperous and productive social life to the nation.
Structures, Processes and Practises Malaysia has 2 Henry Gurney Schools and 6 Juvenile Correctional Centre operated by the Prisons Department. In monitoring of these facilities, Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat (JKM) and Prisons Department offcials as well take undertaken through routine inspection. Board of Visiting Justices and Board of Visitors used to have periodic visits to all the centres. Aside from these stakeholders, SUHAKAM conducts regular visits to all places in correctional centre throughout the country; however they only visit either in response to a complaint or as a part of their regular routine. Until today, SUHAKAM no longer has the authority to make unannounced visit with inmates in private without the prior consent of Prisons Department. Current Review of Juvenile Correctional Center Since 2008, six Integrity Schools were set up to provide a second opportunity for juveniles and young prisoners to improve themselves in the academic, co- curricular and personality aspects. The concept of implementation of this school is to provide a formal education system based on the Malaysian Education Ministry curriculum. The school management and administration are managed by Education Sector, Prisons Department of Malaysia. The classification of students is not based on age but according to the academic achievement level. Collaboration Prison Institution with Tertiary Education Institution. University of Malaya has been operating a community outreach program with cooperation by the Prisons Department. University student from the Faculty of Law are participating in the regular students routine, fortnightly visit to the correctional center under the guidance of a professor. Other than that, the students prepare educational sessions for the inmates by using games, music and outdoor activities within the center zone. The main focus of this partnership cooperating with the university is mainly on legal information, basic right of the incarcerated inmates and volunteerism involvement for tertiary program purposes. Involved stakeholders are generally of the view that the Integrity School is much appreciated by both the students and prison staffs. The increased interaction with outsiders in fact, has resulted in improvements in students’ attitude and behavior. The majority of the respondents among the outsiders are of the view that this additional cooperation is very useful for students’ overall rehabilitation process. The prison officials are hoping that these programs will help to reduce the likelihood of re-offending once they were released.

The exceptional year was 2013 with 128,412 number of arrests, 3 times higher than that in 2012. Whether this high number of arrests is an indication of the coming trend or merely a blimp remains to be seen.

Precedents The case studies have been analysed based on three basic aspects namely; architectural features, country prison policies and functional aspects. Prisons are a highly classifies subject as far as the authorities are concerned. Drawings and photographs of interiors are not permitted by laws and sketches have been taken at the concerned authorities’ discretion. The study purely relies on secondary sources of data and declassified journals, unless specified.

PENAL TYPOLOGIES AND PRECEDENTS RECTANGLE The rectangular scheme became known as the “Auburn” or “silent” scheme by limiting inmate contact as much as possible. The cellblocks are stacked vertically and arranfed back to back with no direct windows to the exterior, the cells are accessed through long, adjacent balconies that overlook a corridor parallel to an exterior wall.
RADIAL Designed around a central rotunda, this prison plan consists of “spokes” or wings of cellblocks; additional prison programs can be within the different wings or as separate structures located in between wings or adjacent to the entire complex. This scheme may include a perimeter to allow for free movement from one building to another,
TELEPHONE POLE A plan developed by the circulation of security, which includes a building with a central spine, a long central corridor or “pole”, crossed at regular intervals by structures containing inmates’ functional areas; this fosters continuous surveillance as well as independantly controlled access to each functional area. Similarly to the radial scheme, this plan may include a perimeter to allow for free movement by inmates.
COURTYARD With the intention of creating an optimal 360-degree view of inmates and allowing for the free movement of prisoners, this plan contains the inmates within an exterior courtyard by designing the functional units as all sides of the perimeter. The courtyard becomes a central circulation space as well as an additional functional space.
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
URBAN A scheme where the correctional facility becomes a solid mass within the varying open and closed spaces of the urban fabric, mimicking its intention of the containment of prisoners in order to protect the general public. Despite its containment, an urban site creates more visiting opportunities for inmates.
CAMPUS A design by which the functional units are individually housed and organized according to any desired circulation. The scheme includes a perimeter to allow for the movement from one building to another without a risk of escape.
HYBRID / URBAN + COURTYARD The hybrid combines the containment aspect of an urban prison with the plan of a courtyard scheme. Differently, the courtyard is not used as a circulation space; the circulation solely exists at the vertical cores each pertaining to one side of the program-embedded perimeter. The courtyard acts as a functional space, with 360-degree security.
HYBRID / URBAN + CAMPUS The interjection of a self-contained microcosm within a latgerm expanding city, the insertion of a campus plan within an existing urban fabric. While the two coexist, they each function separately according to their definitions, only are they together as places to travel to with intentions.

Bastoy Prison 1982, Norway
Incarceration Rate : 75/100 000 Education Ranking : 3 Healthcare Ranking : 11
PURPOSE :
To understand the working, functioning and ideology of the prison as it is quite different and distinct from a typical prison in and around Malaysia.
Norway is a country that is widely known as a ‘trendsetter’ and regarded very highly in the way in which it deals with the offenders of the society. Bastoy Island further strengthen this statement.
The prison in Bastoy, Norway is a minimum security prison located on an island 1.5 miles from mainland and has generated much attention due to its progressive thinking and prison system. They base their penal system on rehabilitative and reformaive path to treat prisoners and holds the record of having the lowest rates of reoffending (recidivism) at 16% compared to other European countries (60%) and USA (70%). The prison was built with an aim to instil responsibility within the inmates. Focus is on human rights and respects. The whole idea is that the closer you are to the society that you are about to go back in to, the easier it is to re-integrate. Inmates are given a chance to live as humans and not animals as in the traditional punitive jail model. The guiding mission of the prison is to treat prisoners humanely to boost their chances of reintegration into society through education and work, making them better people. Any inmate who is a part of the Bastoy Island has to go through the closed jail typology first before qualifying for this facility. Prisoners in Norway can apply for a transfer to Bastoy when they have up to 5 years left for release. Every type of offender including rape and murder maybe accepted as long as they have a good behaviour record and fit the criteria, the main one being a determination to live crime free on release. As such. Bastoy acts as a halfway home as well for the prisoners. Inmates are screened to make sure they are mentally stable and unlikely to plot escape before entering the Bastoy Island. Almost all inmates at the Bastoy Island have served majority of their punishment in a high security prison. The relationship between guards and prisoners is strong as they are looked upon as correctional instructors rather than guards and most wear civil clothes like the
prisoners. Guards even regularly eat meals and plat sports with the inmates. Being and island prison, it does not have any walls or fences, hence escape from the prison is quite easy. The superintendant incharge of the prison, who is a criminal psychologist as well, informs every prisoner on his admission the the island that... “if you should escape and make it across the water to free shore, find a phone and call so I know you are okay and we don’t need to send the coast guard looking for you or your body.” In totality, the Bastoy Island is a prison and such does follow a few rules. The prisoners are counted about 4 times during the day by guards, they are not allowed to carry or utilise cell phones or any communication devices onto the island nor are televisions or any other electronics allowed other than what are provided by thr prison authorities.

“every inmate in Norway will be released. Someday he will be somebody’s neighbour...” - Bastoy Prison Officer
System
It is important to note that Norway doesn’t have the death penalty and the maximum sentence is 21 years. As a result, every inmate in Norway will be released, and someday he will be somebody’s neighbour, so Bastoy is preparing and training them to go back into society. The prisoners found at Bastoy range from rapists, murderers, to drug traffickers. Regardless of what type of criminals they did from the past, Bastoy generalized and de-segregated the sentence as one type of minimum security nature. Everyone has a job, whethher that is gardening, farming, or tending to horses. The prison operates like a small village. There have been few escapes, but many, however, don’t want to leave. If they tried and failed, they would be forced to go to a higher-security prison and could have their sentences extended.
FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS 1. WORKING MODEL :
Reformative model, open-prison typology, island.
2. AREA OF ISLAND
2.6mil sqm @ 642acres
3. FACILITY Current Occupancy : 115 inmates. Prison Staff : 69 prison including guards, instructors, various other staff. Only 5 guards remain on island at night.
ACCOMODATIONS
The inmates reside in singular villa type wooden houses. Each house accomodates about 6-8 inmates; each inmate gets his own bedroom with shared rest rooms. They have a common living and dining space as well as a kitchen within the house. Facilities like television, radio, etc. is all available within the house. One inmate, usually the oldest, is chosen as the house keeper and his duty is to look after the house and the inmates residing in it. The houses have a nice green lawn in front and a backyard with storage areas as well as a verandah. The ideology behind this is to develop a family sysem between inmates while on the island as most inmates are from dark and grim backgrounds and have never been a part of a family
PRISON HOSPITAL
There exists a small hospital on the island that takes care of all the ailments and treatments for the prisoners. The hospital has a psychiatric nurse in full time position and a doctor who is present half a day every week. In addition, a therapist and dentist visit the premises twice a week. The hospital provides the inmates with ample of counselling sessions and other self-help group for drug rehab, alcohol addiction, anger management, etc. The authorities see to it that the inmates take part in regular check -ups and that their mental helath is kept fit.
ADMINISTRATION
The administration building is modelled on the lines of an information centre an office for the staff. It includes a number of offices for the superintendants and also incorporates a number of ‘meeting lawns’. Bastoy Island does not allow the use of guns and does not store any kind of ammunition within the
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
premises. Administration building houses some of the following : - Writing office - Superintendant’s office, jailor’s offices, staff offices - Prisoner meeting rooms - Record rooms - Staff commong rooms - Meeting lawns - Visitors’ centre
KITCHEN CUM RESTAURANT
The kitchen does not just function as a kitchen for the island but also acts as a restaurant where prisoners, staff and visitors can order any dish from the menu that they like and pay for it using money. Here, prisoners who want to learn the art of cooking or want to take it up as a career after release are trained by professionals in the field. They learn to cook, serve, wait and manage restaurants. At the same time, inmates make some money as well working in the kitchen.

One meal during the day is provided by the prison kitchen to inmates. Other meals are to be fixed by the inmates at their respective house kitchens using raw material bought from the prison store. The store is run by inmates and operates 3 days a week for 3 hours each day.
PRISON INDUSTRY
[Figure] Aerial view of Bastoy Island.
Prison indsutries on the Bastoy Island are known as work units. There are four main categories of work units on the island namely Agriculture, Technical, Kitchen and Maritime Unit. Agriculture Unit includes working on the Bastoy farms and greenhouses that produce all the fruits and vegetables to be used; cow barns and sheep sheds for milk, meat and wool; horses for work; firewood production and seed and grass producution. The Technical Unit is responsbile for many task related to the daily running of the island, from repair and maintenance of buildings to laundry and floor-cleaning. It also runs a saw mill, a carpentry workshop and a bicycle repair shop.
[Figure] Typical house for 6-8 inmates with individual rooms and shared kitchen.
The Maritime Unit includes two boats, a ferry used to transport people, guards and prisoners and even goods and automobiles to and from the island and a fishing boat. This unit is run by a combination of civilians and prisoners. Inmates get paid 10$ a day plus 125$ a month for grocery shopping and other activities.
EDUCATION AND VOCATIONAL TRAINING
Vocational training exists in the form of the training that the convicts receive while working on the various jobs they get outside. Apart from this there exists a church and a school.
[Figure] View of inmate house with mainland in background
Church provides the inmates with religious education which aids in the process of rehabilitation. A priest is present ful time on the island is always ready to lend an ear to the inmates issues. He advises them on how to deal with their problems. As such, church along with the services of the hospital provide a comforting atmosphere for a prisoner to reform. The church also organises meetings and cultural events. They also helps out those prisoners that want to get in touch with the representative of another faith.
School provides the inmates with a chance to finish their education or ei-
ther take up a specialised course that may help them earn a livelihood upon release. They have a well set up IT lab and provide courses like graphic designing, marketing, engineering and many more at the school.

RECREATION
Bastoy Island consists of a library building that is open every day all year round. A librarian from Horten library staffs the library twice a week, and inmates cover the rest of the week. The library lends out books, books on CD, movies, music, language courses, a few DVD players and a broad selection and magazines. Apart from the library, the prison island also include a gym with training equipment, indoor climbing walls, cycling, running, fishing, walking trail around the island, movie rooms and equipment for different games indoors and outdoors. A number of in-prison bands and theatre groups present perform at the community hall around the year. Lectures and events from people who have finished their prison sentence and have recovered and live a normal life in the society take place often. There are benches and seating spaces present in the lawns within the prison premises.
ARCHITECTURAL ASPECTS HISTORY AND AGE OF CONSTRUCTION
Before the current prison, the island was occupied by a juvenile detention centre, Bastoy Boys’ Home. The Norwegian government purchased the island in 1898, and the Bastoy Boys’ Home opened in 1900. If followed a very strict and brutal regime that had resulted in a number of deaths on the island. In 1915, an uprising took place on the island when about 30-40 boys rallied around four youths who had escaped and been recaptured. The group refused to work, armed themselves with farming tools and stones, cut the telephone lines and then burned down the barn with stolen matches and cigars. The Norwegian army had to step in to bring the rioters in control. The Boys’ Home was taken over by the government in 1953. It was shut down in 1970. The Bastoy Prison, as it is known today, opened in 1982. An island that was once known for its brutal correctional techniques and method now incorporates a more progressive outlook towards prisoner corrections and reformation. In 2014, the prison was awarded the 2014 Blanche Major Reconciliation Prize for “promoting human value and tolerance”.
MATERIAL USED
All structures and buildings on the island are majorly constructed using local wood suited for the climate of Norway. To avoid an institutional feel, exteriors are not concrete but made of bricks, galvanized steel and larch; the buildings seem to have grown organically from the woodlands.
PLANNING CONCEPT
[Figure] An inmate at the barn.
The Bastoy Island has been planned and constructed to mimic a basic village in any part of rural Norway. The prison is organized as a small island community with about 80 buildings, roads, beach zones, cultural landscape, football field, agricultural land and forest. The look and feel of the island makes the inmates feel they are back into the society and not a part of a prison or undergoing a sentence. This set up provides the inmated with a controlled environment which they can use as a “punching bag” before stepping into the world outside.
DAILY SCHEDULE OF INMATES
Being an open jail, there is no fixed schedule that the inmates follow but there are fixed timins for meal times and wake up and bed times as the prisoners are counted at least 4 times daily and a recors is maintained. At no time during the day are the prisoners kept behind lockups. Work timings are between 8.30 am and 3.30 pm for five days a week. Lunch is usually at around 12.00 pm. Dinner is prepared by prisoners at their own houses.

Halden Prison, 2010, Norway.
Incarceration Rate : 75/ 100 000 Education Ranking : 3 Healthcare Ranking : 11
#world’s most humane prison Halden Prison in Østfold, Norway is considered the world’s most humane incarceration centre. Boasting amenities like workshops, game rooms, open kitchens, a sound studio, a library, and a rock-climbing wall, as well as harmonious prisoner-guard relationships, this maximum-security facility is a Utopia in comparison to prisons in the United States and much of the rest of the world. Planning for a new high security prison in Ostfold began in 1999. Construction began in July 2007, and the prison was completed in April 2010. The reason for the construction project was a lack of prison capacity in Norway, as well the fact that many prisons were old and not fit for purpose, which meant they were due to be phased out. The intention is that prison should facilitate the two mutually dependant contradictions of a sentence: ‘Hard and Soft’, where the hard represent the sentence and deprivation of freedom, while the soft relates to the concept of rehabilitation. Building a relationship between inmates adn employees is an important part of both the rehabilitation process and ensuring security.
“Nature is actively involved as a social rehabilitative factor in the architecture...the opportunity to follow seasonal changes helps to clarify the passage of time for the inmates...” - Halden Prison Lead Architect

System Humanistic Principles Both in terms of the design of regulations and its practical work, the Norwegian Correctional Service should strive to ensure that these characterise the execution of criminal justice in practice. The Norwegian criminal justice system is based on humanistic principles and on individual arrangements for convicts and inmates. The aim of protecting society from criminal acts must be balanced against the aim of ensuring that the individual inmate has the opportunity to return to society as a future law-abiding citizen. The Import Model Norwegian prisons are run using the so-called import model. This means that different public bodies deliver service to inmates in prisons, in the same way they also deliver these services to people in the community outside of prison. Norway’s most modern Halden Prison was Norway’s newest and most modern prison when it opened. It is tailored in terms of design, architecture and content to provide incarceration that complies with the principles that Norwegian criminal justice should be based upon. Inmates are sentenced to punishment, but they are not deprived of their rights as citizens in relation to education, health, work, religion and social services. The prison has a wide range of activities and services on offer that aim to help inmates to master daily life following their release.
FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS 1. WORKING MODEL :
Reformative model, open plan campus typology, hilly site.
2.SITE AREA :
approx 314,000sqm @ 77.5 acres
3. FACILITY Current Occupancy : 252 inmates Prison Staff : 35 prison including guards, instructors, various other staff.
ACCOMODATIONS
The living quarters are located behind the copse on the hill. This is a short walk from the activity building and administrative building to the west. The sections accomodate four units on each floor, with 10-12 inmates per unit. This means there are 84 spaces in each unit. The layout of the cells and common room ensure good views of the surrounding natural landscape. There are two outdoor spaces, each with an area of approx. 1000sqm. One is designed for sporting activities, while the other is more contemplative with a focus on experiencing nature and movement. The cells are organised around a common room that has dayligh from two sides. This gives the daylight and view some latitude in relation to experiences during the course of the day. The comon room includes a kitchen/eating area and living area. The guard room is active adjoining part of the common room. The cell wings diverge from the common room like arms. The living quarters are identical, but with different views and colours.
THE CULTURAL CENTRE
The cultural centre houses the sports hall/ cultural hall featuring a stage, weights room and a ceremony room, all of which are organised around a foyer with views of the football pitch to the south. Daylight is taken in along the length of the floor through exercise wall bars. The ceremony room has load-bearing brick walls where individual bricks have been replaced with glass bricks to allow daylight to enrich the room. The feature wall to the east has received artistic treatment and the natural landscape on the hill to the east becomes part of the room’s interior through the slits on either side of the wall.

ARCHITECTURAL ASPECTS In term of location, design and interior, Halden Prison has been designed to reflect life outside its wall as an important tool during inmates’ sentences. Halden Prison is built on the crest of a hill surrounded by woods. Typical of the site are the three elongated hills running north to south. The middle hill divides the site into two main levels with a difference in height of approx. 8-10 meters. The site is characterized by its existing pine woods with smooth rocks and heather forming its base. This was considered a valuable starting point for the development of a prison facility, alongside the requirements and limitations that apply to such a facility.
INTEGRATING THE ORIGINAL ELEMENTS
The goal throughout the process has been to preserve and integrate the original landscape and vegetation into the prison facility. Topography and existing vegetation therefore forms the basis for the location of the buildings and design of outdoor spaces. The landscape natural and processed is incorporated as an important part of daily life in the prison. The overall objectives were : - To preserve the existing vegetation and terrain -To use local materials - To create a varied facility that stimulates use and physical activity
Free Floor Plan. No predefined model. Depends on the site and briefing. Each building has its identity (different material and forms). Courtyards opened to the outside space. A modern plan without interference of the reform from the 18th century and the famous Panopticon model
EVERYDAY MOVEMENTS
The architectural response to these goals has been, amongst other things, to divide the building stock so that inmates’ movements during the course of the day reflect - as much as is possible - our everyday movements through the home, school, workplace and leisure activities. Symmetry and axial order are avoided because this often creates associations with subjugation of the individual. The facility is divided into ‘public’ and ‘private’ functions with different modes of expression. It has been the intention that the prison’s employees should feel that they are in a different zone when not mixing with inmates.
SMALL OASES
The administration and welfare buildings are located on the flattest part of the site. The existing terrain and vegetation between the buildings has been retained as mach as is possible. There has been an emphasis on creating good, varied outdoor spaces adjacent to the buildings.
HARD AND SOFT
Cells. Long vertical windows. Privacy. Long vertical windows with views to the outside world. Natural lighting and ventilation. Bright, simple and modern furniture. Safety glass instead of bars.
The project’s intention and main initiative is based on two mutually dependant contradiction : hard and soft. Hard represenents the deprivation of freedom that occurs during a sentence, while the soft represents the goal of rehabilitatio. This is reflected in the main initiative and the position of the buildings.The division of the site in two has provided guidance for the facility’s main focus and architectural differentiation. The bulk of the institution, the administrative functions and the highest-security units are gathered together in one system connected to the main gate and sports park on the lower.
EXTERIOR
The facility’s exterior, situated in the lush wooded area, is clean and precise in its expression. Dark brick wall, galvanised steel and timber are used consciously to create a precise facility with beautiful dimensions and distribution of windows. The complex has the appearance of a modern prison facility. The chosen materials have a nuanced character with textures and colour breaks, which together with the impact of dayligh on the material ensure the buildings have a shifting character throughout the day and year. The goal was to construct the buildings ‘into the natural landscape’. The colour palette of the materials is inspired by the pink granite of Halden, the brown-pink hue of the pine trunks and the
Outdoor Spaces. Located in a forested area. Green spaces, trees and landscape features are everywhere.
moss-clad forest floor. Grey-pink bricks have been used.
INTERIOR
An interior designer has been used for the furnishing of a prison. Functional needs, security and efficiency for employees have been put into focus. Together with architects, the work has compromised understanding the logistics, the main functions of the rooms and their interdependant relationships. The facility’s interior should help to drive a positive attitude amongst inmates.
COLOURS AND VARIATION
The base colour is a neutral grey-white. In addition, 15 impact colours have been selected that are used as contrast colours in various rooms and buildings. The colours in individual rooms have been chosen based on the psychological impact those colours have on inmates. In cells, subdued colours that contribute to a calming atmosphere have been used. In activity rooms and common rooms, fresher and more energetic colours have been used.
Galleries. Less cells in each gallerie. Clean and bright materials. Larger gallery width. Friendly environment

CORE PROGRAMMES ROS (Relationships and Cohabiting)
ROS is a cognitive-dynamic programme for those convicted of sexual offences and is based on non-confrontational treatment in a group setting where efforts are made to address the partcipants’ risk factors for relapse. The programme works actively on issues such as anxiety, depression, guilt and shame. It also helps to develop skills in building and maintaining good relationships. This includes the way in which we think, being aware of how one’s own feelings and feelings of thers play a role, self-esteem and self-perception, how fantasies affect us, our social relationships and our capacity for intimacy.
NSAP (National Substance Abuse Program) This is a cognitive programme that is based on how we think and how this influences our actions. The programme’s starting point is that substance abuse is learned and van therefore be unlearned in order to learn new behaviours that are more appropriate and provide a better quality of life in the long term. Target group: Inmates who acknowledge they have a substance abuse program/face challenges
Dad in Prison
Parental Guidance (ICDP)
Parental guidance is a programme based on the sensitisation method. The programme is conducted as a group conversation, with a focus on the child and their needs. Target group : Inmates who are fathers and have regular contact with their children, including through visits.
Many inmates find it complicated and challenging to take responsibility for their families, and especially their children. Everyday life requires us to be caring, responsbile, supporting and good role models for our children. Experience indicates that dads in prison for any number of reasons feel that they do not have sufficient skills or experience as fathers. At the same time, there are many who have a conflict-filled relationship with their mother of their children.
Coping with Stress
Anger Management
A programme for all inmates who have difficulty mastering their anger. Those who may particularly benefit from such a programme are also welcome to apply. The programme illustrates the causes and consequences of uncontrooled angry behaviour and how it is possible to use alternative patterns of actions in risk situations. Target group: Participants who have been convicted due to anger and aggression isssues, or who may be perceived to face challenges in this respect.
“Programme activities are used to describe initiatives run by the Norwegian Correctional Service directed at inmates and those on remand in the form of teaching, skills training and structured conversations. ”
A brief programme with a cognitive link. The programme is specifically aimed at inmates who experience a lot of stress during their spell in prison and who may receive straightforward tools to help them in situations they may find stressful. The programme is simple and addresses relevant subjects related to stress. Inmates contribute their own experiences with a focus on sreess from both the past and present. Target group : Inmates (primarily new arrivals) who are experiencing stress in prison or at various stages of serving their sentence.
Breaking Crime
‘Breaking Crime’ is a programme aimmed at inmates who have developed a criminal lifestyle over a longer period of time. The programme is cognitive and focuses on the opportunities for change amongst participants through changing though patterns and attitudes towards criminality. Target group: Those who are interested in changing their criminal lifestyle and have made a choice/ decision in this regard.

TECHNICAL AND INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION (TIP) A wide-ranging vocational education pathway on the road to profesional expertise. Inmates who select TIP programme of education have a whole ocean of opportunities on the road to professional expertise, as well as great options when it comes to exciting jobs after they complete their sentences. Multiple ways forward There are multiple ways to reach goal depending on what you want to achieve and what skills the inmates have. Either by taking general academic skills or vocational education programmes, in which you can purse your apprenticeship in the prison’s own garage, or you may be entitled to adult education and have your existing skills assessed. The approval of existing skills in a subject is the equivalent of passing that subject. Different skills The special thing about school in prison is that the inmates bring a wide range of skills and experiences, in addition to the fact that the time they spend here naturally varies greatly. Some also have shorter or longer breaks for various reasons without it being detrimental to their studies. “We don’t see it as a challenge. We perceive it as a unique opportunity. Here, we arrange it so that everyone can benefit from out provision regardless of what their background is and what level they come in at”.
“We really love helping people to move on in life.” Teacher Geir Johansen and skilled worker Kim Norander Buckholm at Halden Upper Secondary School’s branch in Halden Prison.
As a minimum, apprentices should undertake a two-year apprenticeship, but can be provided with a customised programme if required. They arrive in the workshop from their cells everyday at 8.30 am and work until 15.00 following a working day as similar as possible to what will meet them once they finish their sentences.
Motivated students Students are typically very motivated, and that they consider this a sanctuary where their daily lives can be normalised as much as is possible. After a while, the students often open up and tell powerful stories from their own lives. This can be concluded that they get close to the individuals and play a completely different role that they would in a regular school. Supporting people Both state that being able to support people in a difficult phase of their life is very rewarding. The fact that many choose to serve even the final part of their sentence in the prison rather than in an open prison so that they can complete their education is something they see as a good sign that they have created a professionally positive and inclusive environment.
A teacher at Halden Prison school who is responsible for teaching on automobile course. He boasts of the great interaction between correctional service and the school, which offers great flexibility and a unique opportunity for inmates to develop vocational skills.
“There is an inner driving force to work to help people moving on,” They have experienced many success stories with inmates who have completed their education and passed their qualifying examinations, which has enabled them to secure placements and permanents jobs in their chosen professions. Opening doors to industry The teachers are often themselves able to open doors into local industry for individuals by making contact and accompanying them to their first meeting. This is about humanity. “We find most businesses to be positive, but it is important to be honest about the reasons behind the prison sentence if they are to have a chance. Fortunately, there are many business owners and managers who see the person rather than the conviction, which means they have ended up with an extremely dutiful and hardworking employee in return.”
Works officers who both have extensive experience in the auto industry, monitor their apprentices closely. They are also responsible for the car care section which has capacity for three inmates.

“GARAGE BEHIND BARS” The workshop is approved by the Norwegian Public Roads Administration and carries out all types of services, maintenance and mechanical repairs, as well as EU inspections and car care. The aim is for inmates to be able to complete the full programme of education while in the prison, including their apprenticeship and qualifying exams. “Skilled car mechanics are always in demand. That’s
why the programme here offers great opportunities for a permanent job on the outside. This means people have a better chance of a normal life”. State of the Art
The workshop has state of the art equipment and space for three apprentices. They are closely monitored in both their practical and theoretical work, in line with the curriculum.
“We are very careful in terms of the execution of the practical work. No cars are returned from here that we cannot guarantee the quality of”. Some of those who apply to work with vehicles have previously dropped out of upper secondary education. Regardless of how far they have got in their education before stopping, they can resume their studies and complete their education in prison
Motivated Students
The students pursue knowledge that is far beyond the curriculum. “They know that they are being given an opportunity that shouldn’t be wasted. The working conditions here also based on trust, and everyone connected to us has to pass an approval process. The workshop has open doors into the prison’s public spaces, but there are strict rules about where the inmates are allowed to go.”
Close Cooperation
Before the students are given apprenticeships,the teacher who is responsible for teaching must seek to provide students with the best possible vocational skills and motivation. The students have to go through some theory, which they use the prison classroom for. They also try to integrate the theory as much as possbile into their practical work through the use of textbooks to see how it works in practice. This makes learning more pleasent. This experience provides inmates with a unique opportunity for a positive future.
“CARPENTRY” Many come to carptentry to have an interesting meaningful everyday life in prison. They place a major emphasis on creating an inclusive and positive environment. The workshop is well equipped with machinery and tools, and has capacity for 10 participants. Demand is substantial and all places are usually filled.
Different Levels
The level of knowledge and practical experience naturally varies greatly amongst those who apply. Some have barely ever used a plane before, while others have extensive experience of craft work and are very familiar with the machinery.
Production
Tasks consist of the production of useful and saleable items such as butter knives, ladles, spoons, various boxes and containers, pot stands and much more. The only limitation on what they can produce within the current framework is their imagination. Inmates often bring along their own ideas that they always want to try out stuff.
Bigger Challenges
For the most talented individuals, it is a short path to the full carpentry workshop where they have more advanced machinery and a wider ranger of production- where they also face bigger challenges.
“Here in carpentry, we find suitable task regardelss of the level of skills that inmates already have.”

WIDE-RANGING H E A LT H C A R E PROVISION - Doctor - Nurse - Psychologist - Physiotherapist - Dentist The health and care services for inmates in prison should be equal to those provided to the rest of the population. Inmates have the same statutory entitlement to healthcare as all other citizens. A prerequsite for good and propser health and care services is that inmates have access to qualified personnel who have specific expertise in matters related to their unusual living conditions, situation and health issues - and who are familiar with the correctional service’s tasks in prison.
Complex Challenges
Statistically, mental ilness, as well as drug addiction are all over-represented amongst inmates. These often pose complex challenges. Some of them are already undergoing treatment when they arrrive, which can be overlapped and continued withing the prison walls. Many who end up in prison for the first time feel like the world outside is falling apart both in family-terms and financially. It can be traumatic and can cause anxiety and depression. This is why the initial period is particularly important with a view to stabilising the inmate and motivating him to look ahead.
“Many inmates struggle with mental issues and often face complex challenges. We examine and treat mental disorders,” - Prison psychiatrist specialist
EXERCISE H E A L
FOR T H
Exercise as Medication
Some inmates spend a long time in living quarter, with just a few hours per day out of their cells. This can quickly lead to isolation and passivity. The early days in prison can be intrusive with a lot of thought, uncertainty and anxiety. We have an important role to play in getting people out of their cells and being active. The use of the forest is optimizes, where they made a trail that they often follow with the inmates. This can be either in the form of individual sessions, or in small groups.
“Some inmates serving long sentences may not have seen anything but asphalt and concrete for years. In the forest at Halden, they can’t see the walls, and the terrain is rugged. It gives the sense of being on a hike somewhere in the great outdoors, and is good for the balance of mental health.” MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA

quality of sleep, sensitivity to stress, concentration, anxiety, the immune system and much more. Yoga is also used to good effect.
Studies have shown that more than 60 percent of inmates have significant drug problems, and a large proportion of all crime is in one way or another connected to the use of drugs. But having a drug problem is one thing. Recognising that you have is an entirely different matter.
Many people come to Navigator with very poor self-esteem and little belief in a positive future. The starting point is that everyone is good enough, and that everyone has talents and opportunities if they are willing to get grip on their lives.
“To get a spot in Navigator, you need to have acknowledged your addiction and be motivated to strive for lasting change.”
High Level of Expertise
Responding to a question of what addiction treatment consists of, the Head Milieu Therapist says... “There is no specific description or recipe for drug treatment. You can’t have an operation to remove the problem, and no medicines will make you better. First and foremost, we ask the inmates to look themselves in the mirror and focus on their own attitutdes to themselves and the community around them. How do I want to live?? Do I want change? It’s the inmate who is in focuse and we are here to help.”
Individual Follow-Up
Everyone serving their sentence in Navigator is provided with an individual follow-up plan. Joint meetings, activities and exercise are also a key element of the content and the social training provided. In addition, the drug unit provides auricular therapy for those engaged in abstinence through programmes, which can improve
Positive Psychology
In Halden, they do training to identify the small, positive things in daily life. It might be that a prison officer gives you positive feedback, a fellow inmate offers a cup of coffee or get a pat on the back. The rehabilitation work for life on the outside and also provides inmates with great motivation to stay drug-free.
Your Own Responsibility
It is important to point out that it is the inmates themselves who are primarily responsible for their own follow-up care and changes in attitude. It is entirely possible get up and move forward with head held high. “There are many helping hands to aid them on their way, but they themselve have to be willing to take hold of them.”
“ It isn’t enough to just get your blood sober. You also need to be sober in your head which takes far longer.”

Iwahig Prison Colony (IPC),
Incarceration Rate : 179/100 000 Education Ranking : 107 Healthcare Ranking : 60
Palawan Province, 1910, Phillipines.
“prison without bars.”
Surrounded by a thick coastal mangrove forest, a mountain range and a highway, the 26,000-hectare Iwahig jail is one of the world’s largest open prisons, more than two times the size of Paris. A few hundred hectares of the land is devoted to rice paddies, which sit on either side of a fire-tree-lined dirt road. Ducks, goats, cattle and egrets feed quietly on newly harvested plots. Fish ponds, coconut plantations, corn fields and vegetable plots are scattered across the prison, although most of the land remains covered by forest and mangroves. Most other jails in the Philippines continue with brutal conditions, with inmates packed beyond capacity in dingy, airless cells and having to take turns sleeping. But at Iwahig, and four smaller penal farms in other provincial areas, authorities have sought to take advantage of the open spaces to create conditions that encourage the rehabilitation of inmates. History of Iwahig Prison and Penal Colony It was founded on November 16, 1904 when sixty-one prisoners arrived at Iwahig, an abandoned Spanish Royal Farm. It was the plan to use prison labor to clear the forested area to induce people from other places to settle in Palawan. The plan was then chaged with the passage of Act 1738 in September 1907, designating the colony as a rehabilitation of reformed criminals. It was called by the Spanish authorities Iguahit (Iwahig), a penal settlement with two groups of prisoners : the disciplinary cases composed of soldiers and civilians convicted of crimes, and deportees who were suspected or charged with offenses against the civil and religious authorities. The place was developed as a sugar-estate or plantation where prison labor was used. Its forest abounds in prized hardwood such as camagong, ipil and other hard wood used for ship building and cabinets. Today, the place is known as the Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm, located 22km south of Puerto Princesa City, It has gained international recognition as the “prison without bars”.
“This farm work serves as their preparation for getting back into a free society once they are released. It helps them adapt back to life as free men” - IPC Prison Superintendent
Area of the Colony It has an area of approximately 38,600 hectares divided into four sub-colonies : 1) the Central with an area of 12,000 hectares, is the site of the administrative offices 2) Inagawan, 10,600 hectares which was established in 1946 as site of the Davai Penal Colony in exile; 3) St. Lucia, 9,000 hectares, was founded in 1952 as temporary site of the New Ramon Prison and Penal Farm, when the latter was destroyed by disastrous floods and 4) Montible, formerly a logging area of the Central sub-colony with an area of 7,000 was established in 1961. Administration The colony is managed by a Prison Superitendent and about 105 officers and employees. The annual appropriation from the national government averages Php 1.5mil peso. The sub-colonies are also under a Prison Superintendent. These units are divided into working stations: farming, animal husbandry, engineering and construction, forestry, fishing, coconut and coffee industry, handicraft, education and cultural arts and institutional services. Life in the Colony The colonist enjoy much freedom in their movement within their reservation. They live and work like free men in scattered work-stations which closely resemble typical barrios. Some prisoners are allowed to live with their families in groups within the reservation apart from other colonists. Even bachelor colonists are allowed to bring their fiancees or marry the daughter of fellow-colonists. The colony like a free community is porvided with basic services: school, postal service, chapel, mosque, recreation halls, hospital and movies. In fact, Iwahig Penal Colony is a center of social activities where prominent persons from the neighbouring municipalities and high government officials are invited.

Life at Iwahig Prison and Penal Farm
The notable thing about the Iwahig Penal Colony is that there are no high walls that surround the place. Even with the low security, prisoners rarely escape the area. Surprisingly, they respectively bide their time in prison, waiting patiently for their release. Offenders who have shown delinquency are stationed at a more secure area where they are strictly watched over. Prisoners are given the opportunity to work around the farm and fisheries in order to provide food and shelter for their families. Most of the time, the family of the prisoners detained at Iwahig Penal Colony live nearby in order for them to still have a connection with their loved ones. Inmates are given the opportunity to retrain or learn a trade within the colony ranging from farming and fishing to forestry and carpentry.
PROBLEMS IDENTIFIED
Congestion or overcrowding, food provisions are inadequate for normal human daily requirements, absence of adequate conjugal visitation rooms especially for out of town conjugal visitors, opening of personal letters, not allowing them to sell handicrafts to visitors, sanitation especially on toilet facilities/ water supply, absence of sanitary inspectors, inadequate beds/ beddings/mosquito nets, medical facility is inadequately supplied and poorly equipped, inadequacy of funds especially for malarial control projects, absence of continuous health education training program for health attendants/nurses, absence of adequate isolation rooms for communicable diseases, inadequate fumigation for mosquitoes and its breeding grounds, absence of ambulance, violent cause of death is still prevalent and lack of communication equipments. With regard to human rights abuses committed against them, they have varied answers. Some are often beaten-up by some guards and fellow prisoners who are in-charge of the discipline whenever they violated prison rules and regulations. They are usually abused by giving them household workloads and ordered them that these workloads should be immediately done. And if they are not accomplished on time, thereยนs a corresponding punishment for them. And the major problem and concern of the living out prisoners is their chance of being released through pardon or parole.
S U G G E S T I O N S A N D R E C O M M E N D AT I O N S With all the problems raised, there were suggestions and recommendations given. These are regionalization of Penal Institutions or improvement of rehabilitatory process; - to adequately improve budgetary allocations to effect: employment of more staff/personnel, improvement of drug/ supplies situation, and improvement of penal facilities, buildings, accommodation, communication facilities etc.; - the CHR shall evaluate the synopsis of prison record of the inmates and recommends the same to the board of Pardons and Parole for possible grant of any form of Executive Clemency; - the CHR shall also follow-up the status of the application for amnesty of the political prisonersยน concern and conveyed the result therein to the concern inmates; and lastly - there should be a concrete government program on the newly released prisoners to help them cope on their life after their term.

CASE STUDY : Pusat Koreksional Puncak Alam, Selangor. 2018, Malaysia SETTING
Incarceration Rate : 177/100 000 Education Ranking : 66 Healthcare Ranking : 49
The case study setting takes place in Pusat Koreksional Puncak Alam (PKPA), Puncak Alam, Selangor. Currently it is the most latest correctional centre typology replacing the previous correctional operation in Sekolah Integriti Kajang in Penjara Kajang. Ever since the correctional operation has started in March 2018, all young inmates from Sekolah Integriti Kajang have been transferred to the new correctional facility in PKPA.
DISCUSSION 01 : Hard Architecture vs Soft Architecture
In designing an incarcerated architecture, the design must reflect back the basic necessity of human needs for young inmates. Then, the design process (hard architecture) will begin with a plan of a community configuration that encourage social interaction in which few aspect of treatments will be inserted by imposing programs (rehabilitation) that require an effective communication between them.
[PLAN] Accomodation layout, entrance points and activity zones with accessible circulation highlighted in yellow colour.
“The need for security will work its way through the spatial arrangement of private and public spaces in order to maintain safety”, said by the expert architect on prison typology. Then, the overall design will produce a high level of containment that remains as the elements of punishment through the loss of personal freedom itself. Since the new policy on Department of Correctional has been revised and updated, the Centre has overcome the necessity to enforce physical punishment, instead the building itself suggests as a passive contributory for maintaining control. Bars on cell windows, louvers window without the glass, grille gates at all blocks perimeter, high razor wire fencing and steel doors are built to promote discipline and security. The lack of thought for the humane sense in the accommodation cell design is apparent. Two types of cell are designed for specific purposes. The single cells are meant for solitary confinement punishment in which no windows are designed not allowing for natural lighting to strike through. The second cell, which is the normal accommodation for all young inmates, measure 1.8 meters by 2.4 meters deep and hold two to three inmates at the same time. The interior spaces are shockingly non-claustrophobic. The accommodation block layout design is nothing like suggested as a prison system seen in television; dark, non-painted concrete wall and no windows. Surprisingly, the interior colour uses is white, beige and neutral tones for cell walls and ceiling. According to the architect,

the choice of paint colour avoids the use of dark and bright colour. “White and beige colour is painted for at almost walls because it absorb the least heat.” Cells are designed in order to avoid vandalism and escape and any potential for hiding places. There is no space has been allocated for personal belongings storage. This makes the underutilized spaces such as the long circulation corridor to be transformed as informal communal areas such as seating and studying. All cells do not have beds, so the inmates sleep on thin mattresses and timber plywood below it to warm up by avoiding sleeping directly on cold concrete floor. “These cells belong to the mentally unstable.” the anonymous inmate explains. Hard furniture such as steel bunk bed and study table are removed to prevent self-harm.
DISCUSSION 02 :
Public Space vs Private Space Hancock and Jewkes (2011) suggest that incarceration as ‘invisible’ to society, done as a part to calm uneasiness about inmate escapes and an intrusion to the settlement after being released. Puncak Alam Correctional Centre although placed in close proximity to the suburban Kampung Cerakah residential area, it is completely hidden from view. The center is immersed amongst foliage of big trees with a lengthy curving road inland, suggesting the attempt to counteract with the controversy or NIMBY-ism syndrome (Not in My Back Yard) that arose whenever the proposal was announced by the government. From the main gate, the vista along the road with typical government servant quarters typology suggest that this center is nothing suggested as prison gateway. Vehicles are parked beside the main gate and all visitors are to be reported at the guard house. The boom gate at the main road acts as the division of public and semi-private area once the permission to drive upward is permitted. There is also no separation between staffs and visitors’ car parking bays display that once the person is allowed to pass through this point, there is no ‘them and us’ mentality anymore. The built form of the façade itself display small windows with iron grating grid making it impossible to see in from the outside.
“These cells belong to the
mentally unstable.” - anonymous inmate
The routes for both visitation and staffs are separated from the front of the administration building, suggesting the division from the semi-public spaces to the private space. The sprawling layout of buildings are aligned all facing to the north side in which the all the accessibility in private areas such as academic building and accommodations can be controlled by the security at the administration building. The site plan layout suggests the correctional attempts on open-building concept, where all buildings are connected through sidewalk, accommodation acts as the heart of activity thus making the walking distance to all blocks is shortest as possible. Truth be told, the attempt on creating a sprawling environment through the dispersed of layout was quite unsuccessful. Each block is separated with high perimeter electric security fencing, plus the main gate of each block is equipped with walk through metal detector security gate.

DISCUSSION 03 :
Social Interaction and Isolation
Due to the high security nature of the design, some sacrifices concerning the quality of life for inmates are apparent. The activity service space such as sports field is located at the end of the corner instead of being the center of activity. The sport field perimeter is equipped with high security fencing, and it requires prison staff to escort the Fig 3. Location plan of correctional facility from the entrance of Jalan Bukit Cerakah as the inmate to go there. The purpose of the social interaction itself is inflictedonly accessible road.with the nature of communal space design. A communal space should be located as the center of activity, where a direct supervision from the officers is full vision to avoid any potential of contraband. A practical movement for encouraging social interaction is suggested from the beginning of design process. Any accessible communal space should be connecting to all blocks where the walking distance for inmates to move is desirable and walkable.
As described by one anonymous inmate, solitary period is…
’real intense of boredom. No outside air… you can’t see out the windows. They don’t treat you bad but it’s just that everything is so impersonal. There is no natural light source since the design cell for solitary period is difference to the standard daily cell. No windows and artificial light from fluorescent lamp disallowing the person to differentiate between days and night, thus making them become irregular after 14 days. A psychologist added, restricted calories intake is the key for rehabilitation. The psychological effect on hunger influences the behaviours and stress levels of inmates being in confinement. Once the period of 14 days in confinement ended, young inmate will normally appeared with different attitudes. The implication of starvations during the period made them undesirably to repeat the same mistakes, misbehaved because they have experienced the distress of isolation period before this. Indeed, these experiences during solitary invite impersonal features.
[SKETCH] Exemplary accessible block arrangement in which outdoor space acts as a connecting point to all blocks. Contrasted to what has been suggested for encouraging social interaction, there is also a certain situation in which these young inmates will be exceptionally forbidden to participate in group activities such as evening football or school class basically for punishment and mental health state purposes. This situation is called as solitary confinement. In solitary confinement, even after a short of time, an individual is likely to be pulled off into something called as a ‘mental fog’. According to the prison officer, during this process, the attention, alertness of inmate who has been in solitary will become impaired. He added,

DISCUSSION 04 :
Physical Security and Freedom of Movement
The design of correctional centre is driven by a rationale to keep the young inmates from escaping, encompasses a series of multiplex layers. The main entrance to the first building encounter follows by a long, curvy road to an adjacent of car park space, where a visitor waiting area is visible. The main boom gate at the first guard house is manned by a group of prison guards follows by another one boom gate, assembled to divide each status of young inmate category. Citing the quotes of the conversation between the researcher and prison officer, he describes the concept of the correctional design as ‘breathing the same air under the same sky’. He added, the modification that has been done from the previous prison system into the new correctional model is in freedom of movement aspect.
“ In here, everyone is free to move from one place to another. Our concept is open, even without supervision from my people (wardens), these boys (inmates) will not be able to escape.”
Contrasted to what has been described by the prison officer, the researcher’s observation is contradicted to what has been said. Looking from the perspective of an architectural view rather than a person who works in the Centre, the concept described does not apply on the whole living environment. The observation suggested is based on the high fencing security at all blocks perimeter including prayer hall (surau), and communal space (sport field). This suggestion implies the idea that every inmate needed to know where he should and should not be at the every own time and places.
[PLAN] Red line indicates the perimeter of security fencing and the blocks are connected through continuity of walking pedestrian (blue line) in between. At every block security fencing, there is only one security door which acts as an accessible pathway to one another. This security door is equipped with metal detector, as a part of security measure in daily routine.
DISCUSSION 05 :
Safety Control Design vs Authority Regulations The choice of site for an incarceration centre is fully governed by the Ministry of Home Affairs. Especially for a correctional centre, a height site with hill terrain will be the major determination feature for the setting. The soil structure of hill terrain site itself will induce a safety control design aspect in spatial planning and how it will be managed. For example if any unwanted phenomenon happened such as big floods, a height site setting such as in PKPA will be conserved from them. The authorities’ regulations are driven by a rationale to keep the young inmates from needing to be transferred to a safer place in case any phenomenon happens. Even though there is no unwanted precedent issues regarding violation, riots and escapism situation has happened in Malaysia until today, but the safety control design aspect to avoid these situations is still kept taken care of, and be the main determinacy for design. In comparing a correctional policy in our country to another developed country such as Sweden and Denmark, the architect describes that in comparing a prison layout in Malaysia to a prison layout in Sweden, one need to understand how both regulations of these two countries work. A comparison of two different layouts located on two different countries solely based on the architecture itself, is hasty generalization.
[PLAN] Vehicle accessible in yellow line with three series of security guard houses and boom gates in red circle.
A good example would be, the correctional policy in Malaysia allows for Sekolah Integriti modules within the prison, thus the spatial arrangements are needed for spaces such as classroom, library and academic block, but somehow in Sweden, one need to understand how both
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
regulations of these two countries work. A comparison of two different layouts located on two different countries solely based on the architecture itself, is hasty generalization. Its correctional policy allow for private prison other than the federal prison. For sure, the design for private prison will be different, and up above the standard from those in federal prisons. These differences could be distinguished through the individual space for cell unit rather than sharing, the need for private space such as bathroom, pantry and workstation. These two different aspects in policy will shape how the architecture of the prison through the implementation of specific programs introduced in the correctional centres.
“It is unfair to judge our country prison system and comparing us to rehabilitation centre owned by private sector and NGOs. Firstly, we only have one legal prison system, our country doesn’t provide private prison (forprofit prison) like in Europe countries, and thus our authorities’ regulations are subjected and controlled by both Prison Department and Ministry of Home Affairs.” - Prison Officer
DISCUSSION 06 :
Rehabilitative and Punitive There are several aspects that need to be considered whilst talking about the punishing or rehabilitative system. First and foremost, it is vital a system acknowledged human freedom aspect because subsequently it will recognise significant limitations on punishment scopes and intensity towards these young inmates. Rehabilitative program in correctional centre emphasizes on the Sekolah Integriti modules during second phase of inmate’s service development. In this module, the selected inmates are eligible to participate in daily school with access for library, reference books, teachers from Ministry of Education and permission to sit for public examination such as PMR, SPM and A-Level. One young inmate who participated in interview explained that going to school is a part of his daily weekday routine. At the moment, he describes that he still cannot believe that he sits for SPM examination in prison rather than in his school in Pantai Dalam.
“Seven months ago before I entered this place, I have a different idea on what my future would like to be. Now that I’m here, there’s not much I can do. Studying is the only activity that motivates me to wake up every morning.”
He then compares the differences between school experience in the Centre and in daily school.
“Before this I was not into studying. It was hard to concentrate in class, there was so much distraction coming from peers, smartphone and nightlife with friends. But now no more, it is easier now to concentrate in class because I have nothing to do unless going to school.” To help shifting from punishment system to rehabilitation, it is observed that rehabilitation can be inspirational and motivating with the co-opting of educational modules and substance abuse program that help in reinforcing positive feedbacks rather than punishing bad behaviour only. As said by the school teacher who involve in prison education system in PKPA, he describes the differences and challenges in teaching young inmates and comparing his experience from previous years teaching in daily school. The difference would be in the willingness to absorb knowledge among them.
“In daily school before they were arrested and confined in correctional centre, these students are probably being forced by parents to go to school, but in here (prison), they are willingly to join the educational class hour with me.” Not everyone is eligible to sit for daily school routine correctional centre; ones need to sit for interviews to test basic reading and thinking skills first. He describes that the process on educational in correctional centre started at 9AM and ended at 2PM. During this period, teachers are in charged for the continuance of school schedule with less supervision by prison officers as well as in classroom. However, despite the positive elements in Sekolah Integriti modules being injected into correctional model, the sceptical public also has a tendency to not agree with rehabilitative that means for incarceration. Having said that, the common belief is the cost to spend in rehabilitation cost more than the incarceration itself. However, for the past a decade since Sekolah Integriti module program started being introduced in Penjara Kajang, it tend to be more cost efficient. In fact, it reduces the delinquency rates which subsequently will save taxpayers monies and giving these young inmates a safer environment to live in both financially and morally. With no denial, punishment may also have an effect on young inmates, as it makes the Centre as an undesirable place to live and come back, as this is already inflicted through the loss of freedom in spatial limitations. Nevertheless, without the introduction of Sekolah Integriti modules, correctional centre will only serve as breeding grounds for more criminals and future act of crime.

CONCLUSION
This study found that there is a correlation between the designs of a correctional center with the psychological aspect onto the inmates. Young inmates are still punished mentally and physically through severe environments and strict routines. This situation can lead toward mental disorders and behavioural impaired. Most young inmates are not regularly in contact with their families and they left out from society and often struggle to fit in after release. Young inmates are stigmatised as deviants and thus influenced to behave as their label suggests. There is also exists a huge gap in transition period between the inside and outside world. Ways to lower the gap should be implemented through prison design such as pre- release centre in order to help the inmates with re- entry; thus it ensuring a lower tendency of re- offence. Changing public perceptions towards young inmates to positive ones is crucial, and not something that has been highlighted in current Malaysia correctional centre context. This study revealed that a good design of a space can reduce the delinquency instinct and behaviour among inmates.
SUGGESTION
Practical solutions that will begin to introduce the design recommendations are identified. From the conclusion, it is indeed crucial to address psychological issues. The correctional centre should facilitate an effective program to prepare the young inmate for real world challenges. Major aspects which form the program should include sports, formal education, and a humane accommodation cell. The centre should facilitate a positive environment to promote positive behavioural effects. The image of the building is extremely crucial and should seek to lower the tendency of stigmatisation and solitary confinement through a non-threatening design, thus subsequently will encourage public integration.

I N F E R E N C E A N D PERSONAL A N A L Y S I S Each facility that has been taken as a case study - namely the Bastoy Prison, Halden Prison, Iwahig Prison Colony and Pusat Koreksional Puncak Alam (PKPA) - are inspired by the philosophies of reformation and rehabilitation but in their own different and unique ways. The Bastoy Prison and Halden Prison both work to better the life of a convict during the incarceration term and after release. Both have better conditions and an environment compared to the punitive system prevalent in Iwahig Prison Colony (IPC) and PKPA. Although IPC does provide inmates with activities and PKPA as well do provide opportunity for young inmates with second chance secondary education learning through Putra Module - both of these activities and work are purposely to keep themselves busy and to earn a livelihood. In spite of these provision and opportunities, the range of industries and activities present within their premises are far too less in number. Higher education provided by Pusat Koreksional Puncak Alam is also limited, the program focuses on prime education learning to provide young inmate opportunity to sit for public examination such as SPM and STPM only, and specialised courses such as technical vocational courses are unavailable. Likewise, Bastoy Prison located in an island near to Oslo, Norway does provide more liberty and freedom as the prison occupants moves from a living quarter to sport court, to dining hall freely. Eventhough there is no high fence of security within the perimeter, the nature of island surrounded by water becomes the natural security for the whole prison compound- making them looks living heavenly but at the same time stuck in the compound just same as in any other prisons.
Even though Iwahig Prison Colony (IPC) and Pusat Koreksional Puncak Alam (PKPA) are a great attempt at helping the inmates keep busying during the incarceration by making them stand on their own and become a more responsible member of the society, for reintegration into the community, they are not the best way that can be adopted. On the other hand, Bastoy and Halden Prison both located in Norway do stand a better chance at rehabilitation and direct reintegration into the society. Architecturally, the set up at the Bastoy and Halden are different in term of proximity location without the need of community, one in an island and the other is at hilly slopy site, but program wise, they are quite similar. At first look, from the perspective of a Malaysian point of view, the Bastoy Island and Halden Prison come out to be a very luxurious institution for the reformation of convicts. Likewise, in Bastoy facilities which provide spaces such as sauna, steam, home theatres and etc which are luxury in Malaysia even for the middle working class (M40) citizens. On a serious note, the ideology and programs needs to be looked at in totality from and within the context of Norway Correctional Policy, the country context itself before the judgement. Emphasis need to be laid on the fact that Norway ranks on number 11 in healthcare provision, number 3 in world education ranking and one of the lowest country of incarceration rate with 75 inmates out of 100,000 populations. In totality, the emphasis should be looked on the fact that Norway ranks number 1 on the Human Development Index (HDI) by the United Nations whilst, Malaysia is far downward on 57 rank. Hence, there is bound to be vast differences between standards of living in Norway compared to that in Malaysia.

Quoting a conversation with a prison officer from PKPA, he suggest that a comparison of two different layouts of prison located on two different countries solely based on the architecture itself, is hasty generalization.
Thus, it would be sheer madness to just imitate and replicate the same ideas without understanding the local policy scenario first. What can be done is to lift up good aspects of Norwegian system and adapt it to the Malaysian environment.
Its correctional policy allow for private prison other than the federal prison. For sure, the design for private prison will be different, and up above the standard from those in federal prisons. These differences could be distinguished through the individual space for cell unit rather than sharing, the need for private space such as bathroom, pantry and workstation. These two different aspects in policy will shape how the architecture of the prison through the implementation of specific programs introduced in the correctional centres.
It can be concluded that there are advantages and disadvantages in every system. Every system tells a different story and is set up and programmed to solve its own unique problems. The former two (PKPA and IPC) stand as prime examples of a rehabilitative program and issue in the Malaysian context while the latter (Halden and Bastoy Prison) are a more progressive example on a global level thank can be looked up at as an ideal, exemplary model in the field of penology.

Incarceration compared to High School Education According to a recent report from America's Promise Alliance, those factors rank among the top reasons why kids take themselves out of school. Survey responses of nearly 2,000 students who took at least a semester off at school revealed that systemic factors like boring classes and family obligations were the guiding reasons kids left. Research shows dropping out is strongly tied to socioeconomic status. Kids who come from low-income areas are 2.4 times more likely to drop out than middle-income kids. Unlike kids from wealthier families, for whom school is usually the primary focus, poorer students must focus on other responsibilities. School becomes secondary, if it’s a priority at all.

1957 - 2008 In 1957, was the year of independence for the Federation of Malaya The Federal Government at that time introduced the United Nations Minimum Rules for Detention (UNSMR). By adopting this method the Federation of Malaya adopted the United Nations standard in the country’s detention system. The Federation of Malaya is one of the most widely used countries in the Commonwealth. Following the establishment of Malaysia in 1963, the Prisons Department of Malaysia reorganized with the consolidation of prisons in Sabah and Sarawak. On 2 November 1995 the Prisons Act 1995 was passed to replace the Prisons Act 1952. On 1 September 2000 Prisoners were enacted 2000 to replace the Prisons Regulations 1953. Changes and amendments to prison of these laws and regulations are in line with the changing landscape of landscape services in the country .

Prison Department of Malaysia with collaboration from Ministry of Education have developed and implemented a rehabilitation module that is specially targeted at young prisoners known as the Putra Module and a rehabilitation plan targeted at juveniles in Henry Gurney School and Sekolah Integriti (pusat koreksional) with attitude building, knowledge and skills development as the main objectives. This is to ensure that the juveniles can be rehabilitated to be normal individuals again. The Putra Module was developed with an integrated approach namely; physical and spiritual rehabilitation. The Prison Department of Malaysia has identified the four main programmes in the module, namely the Discipline Building Programme, the Character Reinforcement Programme, the Skills Programme and the Community Programme. The implementation of the rehabilitation programmes is supported by spiritual activities, counseling, good citizenship and moral/civic education.

5 principles for a successful prisoner re-entry. These principles show that it is not only about creating a beautiful principles, in conjunction with a “place/ building”. Once this happens, there is a higher chance of successfully integrating back into society, Strengthening social networks is a large part of the equation and includes such things as meeting with families of the inmates and talking to them and asking for their help in the re-entry process.

One example of the 5 principles is taking advantage of when the inmate is released. Most inmates upon release are left alone in their new freedom, and are given some money to find a way home. This can be a very overwhelming and intimidating moment. As a result, the author proposes to “seize the moment of release,” through the creation of an exit orientation or “welcome home” event, where the inmate’s family, community, and mentors are present at the moment of release. This creates a sense of belonging and acceptance in the community.

Security Threshold based on Program
incarceration education health community
Basic of prison design
Prison should aspire to become a place for the promotion of mental health as a positive state; a place lessening the risk of deterioration of mental health through high-quality care and environment for inmates to thrive. The basis of prison design should be a therapeutic community. In order to design for reform, a basic human need of the inmate. It will begin with a plan of community configuration that promotes social interaction; the aspect of treatment will be inserted, imposing a program that requires effective communication between inmates. Finally, the need for security will work its way through the organization of the private and public spaces in order to maintain safety. The overall design producing a high level of containment remains and exists as the element of punishment through the loss of personal freedoms. Spaces of solitary confinement and isolation are the most detrimental to the mental health of any patient. In order to influence positve mental health, spaces must promote human interaction with the objective of instilling a sense of community in the inmates. A community is composed of varying architectural elements that create private and public spaces with different types of restrictions at different times.

CHAPTER 4 : SITE INVENTORY 4.1 Key Plan / Location Plan
Key Plan proposed site
UPM Serdang as chosen site. Universiti Putra Malaysia was developed on a 22acre piece of land in Serdang and offered two programmes: a three-year diploma programme and a one-year certificate course in Agriculture.
Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya
Majlis Perbandaran Kajang Putrajaya
Majlis Perbandaran Sepang
DESIGN GUIDELINE TOTAL SIZE LAND : 10.6 acre (43,200 sqm) LOCATION : UPM Serdang, Selangor. Land Use : Institusi dan Kemudahan Masyarakat Land Owner : Universiti Putra Malaysia Local Council : Majlis Perbandaran Sepang Setback Facing Road : 12m Common Boundaries : 6m
In 1947, the school was declared the College of Agriculture Malaya by Sir Edward Gent, the then Governor of the Malayan Union. The establishment of Universiti Pertanian Malaysia came about when the College of Agriculture in Serdang merged with the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Malaya. Dr. Mohd. Rashdan bin Haji Baba, the then principal of the College of Agriculture Malaya, was appointed as the first vice-chancellor by virtue of the provisions of Section 18 of the Universities and University Colleges Act, 1971. With the first intake of 1,559 students, Universiti Pertanian Malaysia had its first academic session in July 1973 in the three central faculties and one basic division: the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences, Faculty of Forestry, Faculty of Agriculture, and a Division of Foundation Studies. In the early 80s, UPM extended its area of studies to include the field of Science and Technology (S&T). In 1997, the name Universiti Pertanian Malaysia was changed to Universiti Putra Malaysia by Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohammad, as a strategic gesture to portray the status of UPM as a centre of higher education capable of providing fields of studies, especially in science and information technology, which facilitate national development in the new millennium.

4.2 SITE CRITERIA PUBLIC
A consistent site constraint in finding services is a site location that can not be accessed by a teenager. A public site proposal shall be access through public transportation to ease the visiting process from family and friends.
ACCESSIBILITY
The accessibility is not necessarily an accessible focusing on site location, however how the physical location is developed and how ones feel about security level at that environment.
SOCIALLY ACCESSIBLE
One institution is not only be accessible physically (either by walking or public transportation), but it must be accessible through socially and emotionally when an non-needed individual suddenly feel needed.
PART OF PRIME COMMUNITY
The collaboration between the incarceration institution and the community will ensure a win-win situation for the community and youth. However, the successful collaboration might loss due to people perception and stigma from community towards ‘inmate’ and ‘prison’. The acceptance from community is important to ensure and help in integrating outsiders and insiders in term of running programs, as well making them (inmate) feel that they are one of us in primary community.

4.3 SWOC ANALYSIS
STRENTGH
OPPORTUNITY
- located in a primary community area (site withing UPM Serdang). • near to local student-patient community suitable for social activities and volunter center focusing for UPM, UNITEN, IUKL students to attract programs, in order to help patient learn values from real-life experiences.
- opportunity to change people perception and stigma toward incarceral institution. • avoiding NIMBY-ism syndrome (Not-In-My-Backyard) by blending in a government owned institution within a university, however site location is still considered as far from private residential housing.
- site is located within 1 km radius of 2 government hospitals namely; Hospital Serdang and Hospital Pengajar UPM • a reasonable proximity to medical treatment for severe medical emergency care. • programs and spaces are designed to cater for both medical students so they can make attachment with patients for practical purpose.
- parallelizing site justification of building function with government intention to treat drug addicts as patient rather than criminal.
- site within a tertiary education institution (UPM). • a concealment for both parties so that occupants in the institutions suit to be regarded as patient or student rather than inmate.
WEAKNESS - the nature of incarceral institution architecture usually does not associate with community and site surrounding, however with suitable program within the compound, the need for community to visit, involve and participate within institution could be encouraged.
CONSTRAINT - design guideline of incarceral building might be subjected to Prison Dept. requirement, hospital guideline and Ministry of Education - making the design exploration will be limited and restricted eventhough the site selection is appropriate.

Sepang district is the youngest district of Selangor State Darul Ehsan. It is located in the southern state of Selangor Darul Ehsan, bordering Hulu Langat District, Kuala Langat District and Petaling District. Sepang district is also bordered by Bandar Baru Nilai, Negeri Sembilan Darul Special. Viewed from the top view, the Sepang District is upstream of a keris, extending southward from Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM), with the Kuala Lumpur-Seremban highway along the east border to the village of Sg. Fruit / Hill Superior.
To the west, is the Kuala Langat District, while the Petaling District is to the north. To the south, the Sepang District is open to the Straits of Malacca. According to early history, the name of the Sepang District was taken in conjunction with the name of a growing tree in the area, the Sepang tree. Initially, the district was a sub-district of Kuala Langat (Sepang and Labu District) and Hulu Langat (Dengkil district). These areas were then merged into a new district. Sepang District achieved full District status on January 1, 1975. At the beginning of its establishment, the Sepang District Administrative Center was located in the town of Sepang. When the Federal Government selected the Sepang District to occupy the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), the Sepang District Administrative Center was relocated to the New City of Salak Tinggi, also known as Airport City (Airport City). On April 15, 2008, the Sepang Municipal Council moved to a new location, Cyberjaya.

In general, BP6 (Blok Perancangan 6) is largely the Malay Reservation Area. This planning block also receives very serious development pressures. To the north it receives the pressure of development from the Petaling District which is a rapidly developing area. Meanwhile, to the west of the BP6 is the Federal Government Administrative Center of Putrajaya which also contributes to developmental pressures in terms of area needs to develop residential areas. Pressure was also received by the BP6 from the east, from Bangi, where there are many public and private higher education institutions, of course, to impact BP6 in terms of housing needs.

6.1 IDEAS AND CONCEPT
CREATING A MULTIPLE, INTERSECTING CIRCULATIONS AS OPPOSED TO ONE LINEAR, REPETITIVE SEQUENCE
MENTAL MAPPING OF INCARCERATED SPACE
Reformed design must begin by bringing back the basic human needs of the inmates. It begins with a plan of a community configuration that promotes social interaction. The aspect of treatment shall be inserted.
INDIRECT HUMAN INTERACTION
THEORETICAL OF SPATIAL & FORM
The need for security will work its way through the organization of the private and public spaces in order to maintain safety. The overall design producing a high level of containment still remains and exists as the element of punishment through the loss of personal freedoms.

architectural wise, it will resemble the changes of incarceration typology from being secluded to being included. from this direction, it will decide the changes and innovation of security measure, changes of circulation and hierachy of spaces that will go beyond the requirements set out by the authority but also sits comfortably within the given site such as toning down the monumentary of an institution.
from this direction, the existing prison typology design and guideline will be chalenged, questioned and decided through the paradoxical factors of what is currently happening vs what actually it should be.

6.2 KEY DESIGN STRATEGIES
DESIGN STRATEGY 1
DESIGN STRATEGY 3
private car with permission to enter circulation at adjacent road main and sole entrance
car
park
Limiting Vehicular Circulation MAIN SOLE ENTRANCE only private car with prior permission from the institution can enter the prison compound. All vehicles will be parked in front of administration zones, in which the authorized staff will be brought to specific building by department vehicle through internal road (private).
DESIGN STRATEGY 2
Interactive Void design strategy aspires to create an institution that is adaptable, interactive and accessible for everybody. The principal act is to elevate a substantial part of the program while lower the other part. by doing so, a public void is created within and underneath part of the building, creating an informal cultural plaza within the formal boundary of the building which provides a new sense of dynamic interaction between inmates and staffs.
DESIGN STRATEGY 4
designated staff drop off service road & logistic loading & unloading
Strategised Inner Circulation department vehicle will bring staffs to specific drop off using internal road and options are given whether staff prefer to get picked up or walk through buildings back to car park. private road and specific drop also function as an escape plan when staff needed to be evacuated; and part of BOMBA circulation requirement as well.

6.2 KEY DESIGN STRATEGIES
DESIGN STRATEGY 5
VISUAL UNIFICATION OF THE STREET LEVEL facade concept aspires to visualise a unification an activation of the street level along Persiaran MARDI-UPM. Partially as part of strategy to tone down the uniformity of monumental look. from human eye level from street view, activities at ground floor can be see through when car passes by meanwhile 2 floor above and 2 floor below is hidden by facade treatment and site terrain below.
DESIGN STRATEGY 7
DESIGN STRATEGY 6
CALL AND RESPONSE TO NATURAL CURVATURE OF SLOPES each floor adjust external topography to internal daily life and the roof adjust external rain to internal movement of air and light, as well as inmate behaviour. the slopes act tot differentiate and integrate places within a single continuous surface and several calls may overlap. looked at this way, the design do not blindly follow the concrete surrounding environment nor do disregard these and do something completely unrelated but rather optimize the natural curvature of site terrain, making use of the contour to hide, to divide and cut and fill at certain area to fulfill the biggest importance component in prison institution; security measure.

ESTABLISH A BALANCED OF FORM AND SPACES WITH AXIS LINE. establishing the water body as the cutting axis in between either side, forms and spaces can be arranged in a symmetrical and balanced manner. from human eye view when entering the site at the entrance, the balanced vista distribution between left and right rationalize the calm inspiration coming from the site. It help to capture the spiritual sense of mental piece, proving that a balanced axis and toning down the monumentality can be achieved at the same time.

6.3 ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING SECTIONAL PERSPECTIVE
CLUSTER LIVING VILLAGE
Living quarters are incorporated with three floor of cell unit stacked on top of each other to form triple-storey kampung living. Within living quarter itself located on upper ground floor, all inmates are free to roam around, giving them slightly a sense of freedom to be at anywhere at anytime during daytime as long as in the living quarter. The flexibility given to them replicates the sense of humane rehabilitive environment within an incarcerated complex.
CENTRALISED GROUND PLAZA
7
Ground plaza is located on a podium of 4 floors above the entrance road level. From above point of view, ground plaza is seen as a series of long, centralised plaza that connect between school and medical rehabilitation blocks below to living quarter above it. Every activity happening on ground plaza is clearly can be seen by anyone from anywbere as it resemble as open place on top of rooftop of school blocks. In case of emergency situation, ground plaza may acts as an assembly point. During any other situation, ground plaza is a meet up place from one place to another. The purpose of designing the centralised ground plaza in such as way is to make it visible and as viable as possible from supervisors’ eye view, easen the natural surveillance process thus eliminating the needs for video surveillance type of security.
CENTRALISED CONTROL ROOM
The needs of a control room in a correctional facility is crucial, albeit the minimum security facility needs minimum supervision. Located at the center of all space perimeter, it ease and shorten the walking distance of a prison officer to his required building.
VALLEY OF HOPE
Being the connection in the between of administration zone to the living zone, valley of hope gives different impression for a newly-reached inmate who about to be located to specific living village. Triple volume high-ceiling with retractable skylight on the roof incorporate the matters for natural ventilation and lighting into the space volume. The left side view overseeing the teaching and learning in tutorial room, while the right side view overseeing the activity in the library.
OUTDOOR VISITATION SPACE
Inmates are allowed to meet visitors during weekend once in every fortnight. Outddor visitation space allows flexibility to roam around with family during meeting. They are allowed to have lunch together at open canteen as well. Double volume high-ceiling space with direct vision towards front facade and water bodies gives dramatic natural lighting impression to people residing within it.

Research shows dropping out is strongly tied to socioeconomic status. Kids who come from low-income areas are 2.4 times more likely to drop out than middle-income kids.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village The proposal for special study is to acquire the living quarter to be analysed and designed according to Cluster Living Village. The purpose of the said concept is to create a humane rehabilitative environment living cells, challenging the traditional inhumane prison environment. It started out with a plan of community configuration that promotes social interaction through the idea of cluter living concept. Then, the aspect of architectural elements shall be inserted to assist a complete rehabilitative environment living. A few architectural elements are incorporated with the considerations on : - the practicality of construction system - the practicality of security and privacy purposes, in order to ease and assist a direct supervision and natural surveillance in an incarcerated space. The consideration on psychological aspects is looked up as well in looking at the possibility of natural lighting that can affect towards inmates’ mental well being, and the formation of triple floor of cell unit to produce one complete village. The flexibility is given to these young inmates for them to roam around their own cluster as it is also might influence their psychological well being.

CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : EXTERNAL CORRIDOR, INTERNAL CORRIDOR Analysis :
External corridor happens on living quarter ground floor in which external corridor

Psychologically, the creation of these separations intended so internal corridor
that inmates might be perceived the sense of belonging by recognising smaller group of people and faces passing through the internal corridor in village.
Conclusion : The separation between external corridor and internal corridor resembles the division from public area to semi-private area.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.2 INTERNAL STAIRCASE TO CONNECT 3 FLOORS OF CLUSTER
2 INTERNAL STAIRCASE
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : INTERNAL STAIRCASE TO CONNECT 3 FLOORS OF CLUSTER Analysis :
Each village has one internal staircase to connect between 3 floor of clusters. This staircase is separated with main staircase that connected to security screening located at ground floor. Internal staircases are naturally well-lit from sunlight allowance by roof void design above the staircases. Psychologically, the creation of these separations intended so that inmates able to perceive the sense of belonging by recognising inner circle of their neighbours and faces passing through the internal staircase in village.
Conclusion : The separation between main staircase and internal staircase purposely to increase a dual-layer security from private zone to semi-private zone.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.3 A CELL UNIT WITHOUT A DOOR AND STEEL GRILLS
3 DOORLESS CELL UNIT
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : A CELL UNIT WITHOUT A DOOR AND STEEL GRILLS Analysis : Each of cell unit is designed without an allotment for door or steel grills. All inmate are free to roam around the living quarter (upper ground floor) without any specific time given. The purpose of this strategy is to not keep them inside (the living cell) but rather giving them flexibility to roam around. It will also affect their mental well-being by giving them slightly a freedom to move and walk outside of cell unit. This strategy only can be achieved because security screening at main staircase is still secured, meaning that they are flexible to roam around but only at upper ground floors only.
Conclusion :
MEDICAL REHABILITATION CORRECTIONAL CENTER ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMENT | BUILT ENVIRONMENT FACULTY | UNIVERSITY OF MALAYA
7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.4 CONCRETE VENT BLOCK AS WINDOW OPENING
4 CONCRETE VENT BLOCK
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : CONCRETE VENT BLOCK AS WINDOW OPENING Analysis :
In each of living cell unit, concrete vent block is used as a wall opening instead of window steel grills. Concrete ventilation blocks are used to create beautiful decorative railing at drying cloth area as well. The design of the vent blocks allows for natural light and air circulation to enter the living cluster while maintaining a beautiful outlook. It can function as a feature wall, partition wall for external façade and stairwells of various properties. Psychologically, the creation of these separations intended so that inmates able to perceive the sense of belonging by recognising inner circle of their neighbours and faces passing through the internal staircase in village.
Conclusion :
A sense of belonging is a human need, just like the need for food and shelter. A
sense of belonging in a greater cluster community improves inmates’ motivations, and health during the rehabilitative processes. When they see their connection to others, they know that all people struggle and have difficult times.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.5 OPEN PLAN CLUSTER BATHROOM
5 CLUSTER BATHROOM
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : OPEN PLAN CLUSTER BATHROOM Analysis :
In a cluster living village, every inmates in one village are considered as neighbours. 50 inmates per village will live as neighbours in a co-housing environment by sharing amenities and facilities availabled within their village. They will share cluster bathroom, washing clothes area, drying clothers area connected by internal staircase. A well-lit naturally ventilated open plan bathroom is shared among 50 inmates. Psychologically, a sharing amenities among them will develop a sense of belonging and responsibility to being taken care of. .
Conclusion : A sense of belonging is a human need, just like the need for food and shelter. A sense of belonging in a greater cluster community improves inmates’ motivations, and health during the rehabilitative processes. When they see their connection to others, they know that all people struggle and have difficult times

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.6 APPLICATION OF TRIPLE FLOOR CELL UNIT PER VILLAGE
6 TRIPE FLOOR CELL UNIT PER FLOOR
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : APPLICATION OF TRIPLE FLOOR CELL UNIT PER VILLAGE Analysis : The formation of triple floor cells stacked on top of each other only can be achieved with the use of prefabricated modular cell units that are assembled on site in sequence. The application of triple floor of cell unit that share internal corridor increases the layer of security by designing only two access entrance door at ground floor of cluster living rather than security screening at every level. The design of 3 level of living quarters are driven by a rationale to keep the young inmates from escaping by encompassing a series of multiple layers but at the same time giving them the flexibility to roam around at the upper ground floor only at specific time.
Conclusion :
The freedoms given are specifically dedicated, with the thoughts to eliminate the needs to design an institutionalised, impersonal living environment but rather choosing the alternative decision with the newest construction technology, inovating new incarceration typology and compose it in a such way that security layer is not as crucial as current correctional typology in the country.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.7 ROOF VOID TO APPLY STACK EFFECTS
7 ROOF VOID
8 INTERNAL COURTYARD
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : ROOF VOID TO APPLY STACK EFFECTS Analysis :
Each of the roof village is designed with void hole at the center of pitched roof. The rectangular roof void is purposely designed without any shade protection or glass panels as a replacement but rather leaving it empty to allow natural elements such as rainwater, dried leaves, sunlight, and air circulation going beneath to the ground floor. The needs and unnecessary prohibited design elements in an incarcerated space such as ceiling fan, mechanical lighting are already tackled through the design of roof void. Internal corridor and cluster bathroom are well-lit with natural lighting only at daytime,
Conclusion : Living quarters is the most time- spent allocated building for every inmates. Replicating the daily lives of a normal person within a traditional village environment will help the process of rehabilitating.

7.3 Architectural Analysis in regards of Cluster Living Village 7.3.8 LINEARITY & MODULARITY
9 LINEARITY & MODULARITY
CLUSTER VILLAGE AS LIVING QUARTER COMPONENT
Title : LINEARITY & MODULARITY Analysis : Construction of prefabricated cell units are laid on site in which 3 horizontally attached cell unit of 3 floors are assembled in one sequence. The complete modular cell unit is incorporated with rectangular linear steel post and beam. This is purposely designed to ease and assist a direct supervision and surveillance by wardens and prison officers.
Conclusion :
A good design of incarcerated space should be able to ease and assist a surveillance from human eye view of supervisors. Re-adapting the traditional incarceration architecture with telephone lines typology, radial and linear typolgy, and adapting into incorporation of prefab cell unit in cluster living typology.

8.1 BUILDING STRUCTURE : POST & BEAM SYSTEM 8.1.1 POST & BEAM : RC FRAMED STRUCTURE
This chapter deals with the technicalities of the project that ensures it being practical and technically competent for construction and safe and deemed for its purpose.
[IMAGE] Typical RC Framed structure. A concrete frame is a common form of structure, comprising a network of columns and connecting beams that forms the structural ‘skeleton’ of a building. This grid of beams and columns is typically constructed on a concrete foundation and is used to support the building’s floors, roof, walls, cladding and so on. Beams are the horizontal load-bearing members of the frame. They are classified as either: Main beams: Transmitting floor and secondary beam loads to the columns; or secondary beams: Transmitting floor loads to the main beams. Columns are the vertical members of the frame, and are the building’s primary load-bearing element. They transmit the beam loads down to the foundations. The materials that can be used as walls for concrete frame structures are numerous, including heavyweight masonry options (e.g. brick, blockwork, stone), and lightweight options (e.g. drywall, timber). Similarly, any kind of cladding materials can be used to clad concrete frame structures. Since concrete has little tensile strength, it generally needs to be reinforced. Rebar, also known as reinforcement steel (or reinforcing steel), is a steel bar or mesh of steelwires used to strengthen and hold the concrete in tension. To improve the quality of the bond with the concrete, the surface of rebar is often patterned.

8.1 BUILDING STRUCTURE : POST & BEAM SYSTEM 8.1.1 POST & BEAM : RC FRAMED STRUCTURE 8.1.1.1 FOUNDATION According to D.K. Ching, foundation is the lowest division of a building or other construction, partly or wholly below the surface of the ground designed to support and anchor the superstructure and transmit its load directly to earth. Foundation can be defined as the element of an architectural structure which connect the building structure to the ground and transfer the load from the structure to the footing and soil. In this design project, pad foundation are chosen. Isolated columns are casted from the foundation to carry a slab at the top of the ground this is mostly used when a basement construction is require.
Pad Foundations
Pad foundations generally consist of a concrete square pad which supports ground beams onto which the structural walls can be built. Pad foundations differ from pile foundations as they do not extend to such depths as piles, and the width of the pad varies in order to distribute the loads to a greater area. Pits are excavated to the required depth, where the concrete is then cast. Brick or concrete piers are then built or cast on the pad foundations up to the underside of the concrete beams that support the walls.

The floor slab in the design proposal is the concrete cast in situ floor slab. Also known as poured-in-place, is a concreting technique which is undertaken in situ or in the concrete component’s finished position. Cast-in-place concrete is the preferred choice for concrete slabs and foundations, as well as components such as beams, columns, walls, roofs, and so on.

Wall is the vertical element that encloses, separates and protects its interior spaces and its occupant. Through the study, it is understand that the external skin of the wall should be durable to weathering effects as it face the sun rain and wind. On the other hands, the interior wall are more explorative in terms of the desired finish materials. There are a combination of several wall system such as the concrete wall,brick wall, shear facade wall, and full height glass, GFRC wall panel and precast vent block. Brick wall of 110mm thick and plastered both sides is used as the majority internal partition wall.

The roof should incorporate insulation and usually a vapour control layer to protect from interstitial condensation. The correct choice of insulation is important when adhering the waterproofing, particularly where solvent-based adhesives are used. The ceiling system in the proposal is left exposed ceiling, in order to create a raw and rustic atmosphere by exposing the original texture of the materials.

8.1.2 POST & BEAM : STEEL FRAMED STRUCTURE LIVING QUARTER STEEL FRAMING SYSTEM @ UPPER GROUND FLOOR (UG2 FLOOR) Steel Framing System is a fast structural system designated for the construction of panel and continuous walls, low-rise individually standing buildings and high separating walls. Steel Framing System has all the advantages of cold-rolled sections such as extreme versatility, easy execution, high speed of construction and low weight of the final frame. It is an ideal bearing system for lowrise buildings and where construction speed is emphasized. Precisely designed light components make the manipulation at the construction site easier and reduce the waste of building materials. Individual components are delivered to the site and assembled on site. The components can be custom-made according to the production documents or supplied in standard lengths and cut on site. Steel Framing System is a very versatile product and it has a lot of advantages when compared to traditional frames: •system designed for a fast construction •light frame decreases the costs of primary frame •possibility of cutting the components on site enables to factor in the inaccuracy of primary frame •assembly of the frame on site from individual light components is advantageous at sites with limited access •high precision

8.1.3 INDUSTRIALISED BUILDING SYSTEM (IBS) An Industrialized Building System (IBS) refers to a technique of construction whereby components are manufactured in a controlled environment – either onsite or offsite – placed and assembled into construction works. IBS is also defined as an integrated manufacturing and construction process, carefully planned organization, and efficient management, preparation and control of resources, activities and results from the highly developed components. The manufacturing of the components are done with machines, templates, and other forms of machinery and equipment. Components manufactured off-site, once completed, will be delivered to the General Assembly and erection of the construction site. The five main IBS groups present in Malaysia: • Precast Concrete Framing, Panel and Box Systems – pre-cast columns, beams, slabs, 3-D components (balconies, staircases, toilets). • Formwork Systems – tunnel forms, EPS-based forms, beams and columns moulding forms, permanent steel formwork. • Steel Framing Systems – steel beams and columns, portal frames, roof trusses. • Prefabricated Timber Framing Systems – timber frames, roof trusses. • Block Work Systems – interlocking concrete masonry units (CMU), lightweight concrete blocks. In the design proposal, precast panel systems for GFRC wall panel, precast slab system and steel framing systems are used for the construction method of living quarter components i.e cell unit, corridor, columns and beams.

8.3.1. FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM PASSIVE FIRE PROTECTION Besides of providing all the tools for the fire protection and fire detection, a good passive fire precautions has been taken into consideration into the building planning at the first place, while material selection also will ensure that a good design have been achieved. Passive Fire Protection (PFP) is a group of systems that compartmentalize a building through the use of fire-resistance rated walls/floors. Compartmentalizing your building into smaller sections helps to slow or prevent the spread of fire/smoke from one room to the next. In this design proposal, passive fire protections are designed according to separation of correctional compound into 4 smaller blocks or zones, namely, school block, living quarter block, medical rehab block. To ease the understanding of group of systems of compartmentalizing blocks, diagram showing different blocks are shown below.

8.3.1. FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM
8.3.1.1 FIRE SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR CORRECTIONAL FACILITY (OSHA) The art and science of fire protection has evolved over the years as catastrophic fires have claimed the lives of those trapped and unable to escape, effectively mandating that new and improved prevention, detection, and fire extinguishment policies, protocols and equipment be implemented. A fire that occurs in a prison or other correctional facility has inherent challenges as the purpose of a prison is to keep the occupants inside, and the typical goal of the immediate evacuation of all occupants from a facility does not apply to prisoners. Because of these inherent uniqueness’s, prisons have some regulations that differ from the standards set for other structures and settings. Three main regulatory differences (or exceptions to normal rules) which include “of-a-necessity” variances due to the unique challenges of a prison setting and the need for security. They are; -doors can be locked from the inside, -normal escape route may be obstructed, and -specific placement of heat and smoke detectors.
[IMAGE] First layer security at living quarter block by adhering keepin-place inside the village cluster itself.
1.Doors locked from the inside.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires that building exit routes be unobstructed and includes that no door be locked from any inside. However, with correctional facilities doors may be locked along the exit route or routes. Consequently, also required is that guards or supervisory personnel be continually positioned along the path of escape and properly trained to efficiently execute emergency evacuation procedures, including the opening of locked doors, to allow prisoners or patients a fast and unobstructed exit. To resolve this conflict, correctional facilities adhere to a “protect-inplace” strategy, opting to relocate inmates from the area of fire origin to a secure area within the facility.

8.3.1.1 FIRE SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR CORRECTIONAL FACILITY (OSHA) 2. Obstructed escape route.
OSHA requires that all public places (community, workplace, entertainment, etc.) have a clearly marked, easily accessible and navigable emergency escape route from the building to the outside. However, correctional facilities are allowed to have, in addition to locked doors, guards placed along the path and other deterrence devices or strategies in place. Consequently, because of the need for heightened security and to resolve this apparent conflict, correctional facilities adhere to a “protect-in-place” strategy where all exit routes direct the inmates to an area away from the origin of the fire to a secure area that is still within the prison facility, and not to the outside of the institution.

3. Heat and smoke detector and sprinkler positioning.
The regular inspection and testing of heat and smoke alarms and sprinkler systems required by OSHA guidelines are still applicable in a prison setting, with state and local regulations mandating the number and type of detectors, sprinklers, and fire extinguishers that must be onsite. However, a correctional facility has inherent challenges due to the nature of its occupants as it related to fire and smoke detector and sprinkler system safety and vandalism.

8.3.1. FIRE FIGHTING SYSTEM Basic trigger factors contributing to fire incident in the incarcerated setting 1.to intimidate other inmates or staff; 2. as a distraction to assist others attempting to escape; 3. as a means of revenge; 4. to draw attention; 5. as a means of suicide; 6. to protest living conditions; 7. to relieve the boredom of incarceration; 8. as a show of force during a prison riot; and 9. when inmates with severe mental problems “act out.”
ACTIVE FIRE PROTECTION (AFP) FIRE HYDRANT The fire hydrant are installed around the site according to the requirement in spacing, distance to the road, and distance to the building in accordance to UBBL. Four fire hydrants are placed within the left, right and middle of site. The maximum distance between the fire hydrants are 78m. The installation of hydrants should be located: • Away from obstructions such as street furniture (benches), phone booths, etc. • Not less than 2m from adjacent buildings and overhangs. • Between 0.61m to 2.4m from Fire ApplianceAccess. • Away from risks of vehicular damage. • Not more than 90m apart from each other (in new buildings adjacent to existing developments, a new hydrant or hydrants will have to be provided if there is no hydrant within 45m radius of the new building. AUTOMATIC FIRE DETECTION & ALARM A fire and smoke detector is a device that detects smoke, typically as an indicator of fire. In the proposal, the fire and smoke detector is placed in the kitchen as safety precaution in case there is any fire. This system is designed to examine all the fire detection and warning devices and to control all the fire mode conditions as required from the Fire Department. The fire alarm system was readily obtainable at all times and also capable of being operated without exposing any person to undue risk. The detecting devices such as smoke detector and heat detector breakglass call point were electrically operated and the alarm will be generated from the detecting devices. Alarm bells on the affected floors and ring continuously. The system is located at a strategic location, such as next to the exit door from the both side.
The hose is connected to the firefighting tank, where the water supplied from the main water supply, and can be extended up to about 30 feet. The pump set located on the ground level of the building with a pump controller, while the water tank located at the roof level. Both of these pumps put together in one room and totally protected and locked with a door. PORTABLE FIRE EXTINGUISHER The portable fire extinguisher was the first aid fire fighting appliances which can be carried out by hand and from which the extinguishing agent can be expelled. All the exits at each floor will be provided with one fire extinguisher. There are two types of fire extinguishers located in this correctional center which are: • Dry powder portable extinguisher • Carbon dioxide portable extinguisher Dry powder type is appropriate for all the classes of fire risk such as non-conducting, non-toxic, water-repellent material cools the flame, separates them from the burning material and includes oxygen. This type of extinguisher is provided next to the exit doors and exit routes. The CO2 type is used mostly in plant room, genset room and voltage room. This extinguisher types also non-toxic material, and an inert gas that does not damage materials or leaves a contaminating agent. SPRINKLER SYSTEM A fire sprinkler system is an active fire protection measure, consisting of a water supply system, providing adequate pressure and flowrate to a water distribution piping system, onto which fire sprinklers are connected. In buildings completely protected by fire sprinkler systems, over 99% of fires were controlled by fire sprinklers alone. Sprinkler head are conventional pendant or upright type. The maximum spacing and coverage to be protected by one sprinkler head shall be as • 21sqm for light hazard installation at not more than 4.6m apart. • 12sqm for ordinary hazard installation at more than 4m apart. • 9 sqm for high installation at not more than 3.7m apart EMERGENCY POWER SYSTEM An emergency power system shall be provided to supply electrical power automatically in the event of normal supply failure to equipment essential for safety to life
The fire alarm located at the end of corridor adjacent to staircase on every floor. The alarm system will be activated to alert the occupant for evacuation when there are fire or emergency. Thus, it is an essential component that must be audible throughout the building in the event of fire. The type of fire alarm system used in the proposal is both automatically and manually actuated. HOSE REEL SYSTEM A hose reel system is a high pressure hose use to carry water or other fire retardant toward fire for fire extinguishment. Hose reel is a first aid for fire fighting equipment and it is often possible to be extinguished by occupants in its initial stage. It is a firefighting equipment to be use by the fireman in the event of fire. In this building, the hose reel equipment is applied at the fire exits and they are located at accessible area. The hose reel pipe risers with 50mm diameter are located at a small room at the fire staircase to serve water to the floors above. Thus, hose reels should be located where users are least likely to be endangered by the fire.

8.3.2 WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM Method of water supply system is using the direct pipes through common trenching to guarantee non-polluted water use. Source of water supply is directly from the main pipe of Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor Sdn. Bhd. (SYABAS) and distributed to every build- ings. On the other hand, indirect System is use to supply water for non-drinking purpose such as toilet, sink, cleaning, and so on. The function of water supply is necessarily needed for cold and drinking water supply, and fire protection system. The SYABAS water pressure is sufficient to serve water tank on lower ground floor 2 (lg2). Water from main water supply coming from MARDI tank is supplied to the suction tank that is located at lower ground floor 2. There is main water pipe found at the site which can directly supply to the correctional center. The cold-water supply system is in indirect supply which the water flows to the water meter then to the header tank. The water storage system used here is the pumping with storage. It is the most common form of water system that ensures water supplied at approximately uniform rate and flow in excess of consumption stored in elevated tanks. The tank capacity includes for fire-fighting, high-use hours and flow during power failure. The water storage requirements for correctional center are incorporated with the rainwater harvesting system and also together with the water basin. All water supplies are to meet SYABAS requirements and guidelines also include provision for fire fighting purposes. The water is then pumped into domestic storage tank at second floor of living quarters to be supplied for usage in cluster village. The water is pumped into the main tank on the LG2 from the suction tank where the piping risers from the main distribution lines are located at the staircase core of the elevators. The rainwater harvesting system are being proposed where the rainwater collected will be used for plant irrigation, toilet flushes and uses other than for drinking and cooking. The rainwater collected from roof of living quarters and ground plaza and surface runoff are chanelled and is filtered and supplied to washroom as discussed in following chapter. Various diameters of pipes (50mm, 25mm, 19mm, and 13mm) are used for water supplying to every floor according to its own usage. The location of the water tank at the roof top of cluster village gives an efficient distribution of water via gravity to the appliance below. It is the most common form of water system that ensures water supplied at approximately uniform rate and flow in excess of consumption stored in elevated tanks.
