As a result, two levels of minimum standards with very different objectives can be distinguished: those set by the Red Cross, whose purpose is to ensure the living conditions of prisoners, and those drawn up by the United Nations, aimed at establishing the minimum requirements for the operation of prison systems. Therefore, the criteria that guide new facility projects should be based on good design practices rather than minimum standards. Here are ten best practices that should not be absent in the architecture of new prisons: As the United Nations Mandela and Bangkok Rules point out, facilities should be located close to the inmates’ place of origin. There is an oversupply of closed correctional facilities, so preference should be given to semi-open facilities, which offer better conditions for both inmates and staff. A correctional institution understood as a physical, administrative, and functionally autonomous unit should not exceed 300 places.
