Re-Discovering Home in a time of Pandemic

Session

Integrated Design

Description

The proliferation of COVID-19 made moving our home business mandatory. As architects and designers run their businesses from home, architectural and design education has begun to be conducted through distance learning through digital platforms. Architectural and design education, which is a process based on the exchange of ideas one by one between students and academics, and which functions through the correction of work done, is in a serious transformation at this point. With the introduction of established life, business concept and the emergence of various specialties, the development of transportation systems, the relationship of human beings with the home in a continuation over the ages has undergone a sudden change in the time of the pandemic. The day before the onset of the pandemic crisis, the living twentieth century individual was committing many of the practices of daily life outside the home, such as eating and drinking, entertainment, education, shopping, building social relationships and work. Today, at the last point we have reached, we are in an effort to adapt all of these practices at home during the pandemic where we live with all our contemporaries on a global scale. In the process, we seem to be meeting our homes again. On the other hand, today we are in a simulation of the digital revolution that started before us and destroyed physical space. In this study we aim to represent “the house”, with experience "closer" and "longer" in the quarantine time.

Re-Discovering Home in a time of Pandemic

Lipjan, Kosovo

The proliferation of COVID-19 made moving our home business mandatory.
