Every day, tens of thousands of youngsters are detained in juvenile detention facilities; thousands more are incarcerated in adult detention facilities and jails. Imagine keeping a young child sequestered for days, weeks, or even months in a tiny empty room. While many juvenile detention centers are referred to as “schools,” few of these establishments offer the kind of instruction, mental health treatment, or other healing services that children require.

Too many juvenile offenders are subjected to strip searches, shackles, chemical sprays, and 22–24 hours a day of solitary confinement. These abusive behaviors disrupt normal development and result in psychological impairment, emotional anguish, and physical injuries. In addition to the trauma brought on by their isolation and separation from their families, friends, and communities, youth in jail frequently experience physical and sexual violence.

The juvenile justice system was developed with the goal of rehabilitating kids. According to research, imprisoning kids for an extended amount of time, especially in the harsh conditions that are all too common in the juvenile justice system, is counterproductive and accomplishes little to safeguard our neighborhoods. Children deserve better.

OBJECTIVE

Design a “semi-open” facility that gives children supervision and structure for 50 detailed children in the outskirts of a city. The concept should address the lives of inmates and society overall. Participants are encouraged to explore how the architecture of a place affects the behavior of people under its influence.

There is no area restriction
