The aim of our study is to provide a broader understanding of how important the design of the public space is in relation to the safety of the inhabitants. We intend to shed light on the city planners perspective in the planning of redevelopments of two existing districts in Malmö. In other words, the paper examines how city planners in Malmö plan two different areas so that they go from unsafe to safe. We also discuss the definition of the concept of safety and how important the safety of citizens is for residential areas to become attractive. In the study, we investigate this phenomenon by analyzing planning programs over each district. We analyzed a planprogram over Kroksbäck and Holma as well as a planprogram over Amiralsgatan and station Persborg. The choice of these areas was due to the fact that they are two areas that today are perceived as unsafe and vulnerable areas. For this reason, it is appropriate to analyze how the sites are planned to reshape according to the plan programs. To give a broader view of the safety aspect and how the place looks and is experienced today, we also chose to make site analyzes of each place. The site analyzes are intended to give a more personal idea of how the authors experience the site based on the safety aspect. The object of study is used to discuss how design can affect the safety in public spaces. In conclusion, we expect to be able to give a more concrete answer to how the design of the physical environment can affect security with the help and guidance through previous research by authors such as Jane Jacobs (2005).
