P O S T have made a proposal for a new prison in the city center of Gothenburg suggesting that architecture can be a helping tool in the rehabilitation of prisoners. And that a central location of the prison can help the prisoners get in contact with the society and vice versa, creating a mutual trust between the citizens and the prisoners.
In the Swedish Prison and Probation Service today it is the actual deprivation of liberty and NOT the prison operations that make the punishment. Instead the time in prison should be used to reduce the risk of re-offending by creating opportunities for the prisoners to abstain from criminal life once out of prison. The prisons in Sweden are divided in security classifications from A-F, where the closed prisons being classified from A-E and the open prisons make up class F.
With this in mind we have created a class D prison in the city center of Gothenburg.
