Rooms are defined areas with a defined function. Most rooms require specific objects in order to function correctly. Only a few rooms have no requirements.

• Rooms can be as large as the player desires. There is no maximum size.
• Any object can be placed in any room, even if it is not required/serves no function.
• Rooms don't need to be limited to four walls, i.e. they don't have to be square/rectangular.

A patched version of Prison Architect meant that rooms would not extend past the confines of any door. For example, if you built segregated toilets for your prisoners within a canteen, and designated the entire area as a canteen, you would find yourself with tiny individual canteen areas in each single toilet. There is a mod capable of fixing this.
