Gamman, L. and Thorpe, A (July 2008) presented the paper Less is More – What Design Against Crime Can Contribute To Sustainability, Changing the Change Conference, Turin.
This paper, given at the largest conference on design and sustainability to date, argues that design against crime constitutes sustainable design because it attempts to anticipate and design out crime and other problems from a system at the outset, in a sustainable way, rather than addressing them after they have arisen, often resulting in unsatisfactory or unsustainable design. It is written in seven sections that explain the DAC Evolved Twin Track Model of the Design Process (2007), developed and applied within the Bikeoff project in the creation of design benchmarks for secure bike parking.
