Crime prevention through environmental design, as developed by the National Crime Prevention Institute (NCPI), supports the concept that "the proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear and incidence of crime and an improvement in the quality of life." The nine primary strategies that support this concept are included below: 1. Provide clear border definition of controlled space. Examples of border definition may include fences, shrubbery, or signs in exterior areas. Within a building, the arrangement of furniture and color definition can serve as a means of identifying controlled space. 2. Provide clearly marked transitional zones. Persons need to be able to identify when they are moving from public to semi-public to private space. 3. Gathering or congregating areas to be located or designated in locations where there is good surveillance and access control. 4. Place safe activities in unsafe locations. Safe activities attract normal users to a location and subsequently render the location less attractive to abnormal users due to observation and possible intervention. 5. Place unsafe activities in safe locations. Placing unsafe activities in areas of natural surveillance or controlled access will help overcome risk and make the users of the areas feel safer. 6. Redesign the use of space to provide natural barriers. Separate activities that may conflict with each other (outdoor basketball court and children's play area, for example) by distance, natural terrain or other functions to avoid such conflict. 7.
