Taiwan crime problems continuously cause society to pay so much cost and recompense, as results, crime prevention and decreasing crime are very importance to Taiwan cities. To prevent crime is main safe topic in foreign cities through “Environmental Design” to reach the goal of crime prevention. Therefore, this study examines unsafe characters of spaces（include visual quality、moving route、land use、environmental control、safe management of space、natural surveillance）through relationship between crime and environment and successful experiences and theories from foreign cities. This study goal is looking for establishing concepts of safe space design and examination standard of safe space and then the study area in this paper sets the commercial-residential areas surrounding Shihpai MRT station in Taipei. The main design concept of safe space improves unsafe characters of space to increase awareness risks of crime and increase residents to enhance environmental awareness of crime prevention through “Environmental Design” to decrease environmental opportunities of crime occurrences. And further this study provides five strategies of access control、keep visible、reinforcement of territoriality、target hardening and removing、and improvements of physical environment in order to reach effects of crime preventions through environmental design. Although environmental design handles difficultly all crime problems but it can instantly eliminate the crime environment. Especially environmental design be applied in crime prevention of local communities. However, policy enforcement、urban design、and architectural departments lack related real regulations and plans in Taiwan cities. Conclusively, this study will provide a little of applied contentions and design examined forms of safe space to assist related “Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design” theory in near future, Taiwan cities.
