16º OBJETIVO DE DESENVOLVIMENTO SUSTENTÁVEL: UN ESTUDIO DE CASO SOBRE EL PAPEL DE LA ARQUITECTURA DE INTERIORES

The 16th goal of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development highlights the importance of developing capacities for crime prevention. Thus, the objective of this article was to verify whether in a Brazilian college entrance hall there are physical space components that reduce surveillance, encouraging unauthorized people to enter the building. At this college, a student was stolen inside their classroom by a supposed intruder. The method uses the Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design approach for on-site observation and analysis (qualitative part), the Space Syntax Theory using the DephtMapX software to produce the visibility map (quantitative part) and the Photoshop program for image processing. The results reveal that the large number of entry and exit points, the layout (control desk and turnstiles) and the positioning of the street access door, stairs and pillars are the elements of the physical space that reduce surveillance in the entrance hall. Finally, this work shows procedures for analyzing internal spaces with a focus on crime prevention, highlighting the role of Interior Architecture in achieving the 16th goal of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development.
