This book gives an overview of the shifting paradigm from traditional design techniques and standards to new values and methods that occurred in response to confronting the COVID-19 pandemic. The theoretical studies of the phenomenon of "new normality" in architecture, urbanism and social sciences are a source of knowledge for researchers, professors and students in the fields of architecture, urbanism and interior design. On-site applications of post-COVID-19 structures will be interesting for students, practitioners, developers and city managers. The issue of online design teaching and learning provides a set of practices that can be applied by both educators and trainees. The book also is useful for readers who are interested in recent trends in architecture and interior design: it provides a deep analysis of recent changes in architecture, which aim to make the environment disease-free and the space habitable during the long periods of lockdown.
