The ACT's first prison, which is billed "world first" in design and human rights principles, has a campus-like design including varying accommodation types. The cottages have been designed to promote normal living. Each has a large wood-look kitchen, lounge/dining area with television, individual bedrooms with shelving and a combined share laundry/bathroom. Inmates can enter and leave the cottages by swipe-card security which can be disabled by prison staff when necessary. Cells have a double bunk, wooden shelving, small toilet/shower, built-in desk and chairs with inmates having access to a caged exercise areas or a sports oval. There are computer rooms, classrooms and a women's community centre. There are also BBQ areas, courtyards, art rooms and basketball courts. Mr Corbell has hit out at claims the facility was "too nice", saying that a loss of freedom was a tough punishment.
