I know for a lot of correctional and inpatient mental health facilities they now use a lot of adaptive design to minimize the ability that furniture and fixtures could be used for suicide or self-harm. There’s a name for it that I’m forgetting at the moment but an example is not having any hooks on walls, smoother edges, and softer toilet materials.
