Thank You all, I've done very few interiors, prefer the little cottages.
Lee your welcome to the Skp. you'll have to replace the textures because its too big with better textures on.

Another great render - you make it look too grim...***You keep intertwining your renders with my past life! Your image of is of the old Durham gaol... and I built 'Westgate', the extension to 'Frankland' - one of the 'other' prisons in Durham! about 8/9 years ago - cost ~Β£13.5mil for 80 inmates, a Category A Maximum Security DSPD* Unit...
***En suite individual rooms [cells] (even 4 wheelchair accessible ones), gym, chapel, library, dentists, surgery, nurses, doctors, pool, snooker, table-tennis, 5-a-side-pitch, garden, greenhouse, badminton-hall etc etc.
They even had Home Office appointed colorists devised the 'restful' internal decor...
It was illegally filmed and splashed on the front page of The Sun newspaper as 'Lags of Luxury'.
I can tell you you don't escape from these places - you try to escape when being moved between these places or court...- A DSPD is a 'Dangerous and Severe Personality Disorder' Unit... so to clarify... if God tells you to eat babies you are schizophrenic and are locked up in Rampton or Broadmoor and treated, as you have an illness... if you just think that eating babies is a 'good idea', then you have a 'severe personality disorder' [i.e. you're a loopy turbo-nutter-bastard who has no known illness, but who can't be left out and about, or who hanged (as there's no UK death-penalty anymore)] - so you are locked up forever in a DSPD - there are only about 250 people regarded as being in this category in the UK - so Westgate takes about 30% of them... Inmates are segregated into 4 wings each with 2 floors. 'Types' of prisoner are kept together - so at football the Child-Rapists-Murders will play the Crazy-Islamist-Failed-Bombers...

Hello TIG, I worked on the new young offenders institute at Medomsley now known as Hasslefield I believe, exactly the same, everything they desired, Β£12m to house 38 offenders! I also worked on Prince Bishop's shopping centre and used to watch the the transfare of the "political" prisoners. Money no object.
take care

It would be considerably cheaper to let them out into the community and then pay them a 'pension' of 2x average wage IF they didn't re-offend, and then chop off their 'goolies' if they did... unfortunately my DSPD guys are all nuts so they'd re-offend even if you gave them as much as premiership footballers! Also many of us wouldn't mind committing a minor crime if society would pay us a good income not to do it again - so it'd not work... The deterrent of gaol as somewhere you want to avoid at all costs has faded in the UK and many EU states too...

paint everything pink in there and they will do anything not to get back again.

That would be an infringement of their 'human rights'
[but then so is locking them up in the first place ] -
Why is one colour more infringement than another one?
-
Usually 'pink' is the color of girls - at least in the US, UK and most of Europe, and 'blue' for boys...
Perversely it was the other way round in the middle-ages, as 'pink' was the paler version of the male warrior's 'red' used for boys, while 'blue' was the Virgin-Mary's color of serenity and purity for young-women... Somewhere along the line it flipped and now 'pink' is firmly feminine/effeminate...
Driving someone 'nuts' [or in the case of a DSPD unit more nuts] by color-scheme is clearly 'a cruel and unnatural punishment' - as outlawed by conventions on human-rights and the US constitution. Although killing people by electrocution, lethal-injection or gas doesn't seem to worry some in the US; the same as locking blindfolded prisoners up in cages, wearing orange jumpsuits after 'water-boarding' them??
The DSPD unit that I did had a Home-Office colorist who advised on color-schemes in cells and other areas like the games rooms etc, to try and keep the nutty-inmates as calm as possible and no exacerbate their state of mind by inappropriate colors - unlike your 'pink' everything might!! -
There are experiments however...
