STRUCTURE

It is up to those creating the facility how exactly they want the layout of the prison, but there are certain features that need to be included.

Such as:

- Windows in rooms (if it's an external wall of course)

- Indoor areas for exercise (like a school gym)

- Outdoor areas suited for multiple activities like exercise or gardening

- Some sort of recreation room

- Other communal areas for activities

- A cafeteria with separate tables (not long tables that are in most prisons)

- A HVAC unit in all areas of the facility

​

​

 

Bedrooms: Rooms will be set up similarly to a college dorm room with basic furniture such as a twin-sized bed, a small closet, a small television, and a small table (they will be all on a hallway). Inmates will have the choice to have a roommate or not. Inmates will have a connected small bathroom with a toilet, sink, and shower. There will be doors on the rooms, but they will have a window big enough so that correctional officers can see in, and they will not be allowed to be covered Below are pictures of a room and bathroom in a Norwegian Prison (rooms will be set up similarly to this)
