Anti-ligature design

**Anti-ligature design**

Anti-ligature design refers to architectural and interior design solutions specifically created to prevent the formation of ligatures-points or structures that could be used for self-harm or suicide attempts, particularly in healthcare, correctional, and care facility environments. This design approach focuses on minimizing or eliminating sharp edges, protrusions, and attachments where materials could be tied or secured, promoting safety and reducing risks. Incorporating anti-ligature features enhances the overall security and well-being of vulnerable individuals while maintaining functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces.
