This week on the 鶹ýion Record podcast digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with Albena Yaneva, a Professor of Architectural Theory at the University of Manchester and the author of “Architecture after COVID,” an examination of how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected built spaces and will inform design in years to come.
Yaneva explained “the laboratorization of space,” where many features of laboratory work and medical facilities became prevalent in the wider world such as plexiglass barriers and increased disinfection of surfaces. She also examined the effect of the pandemic on both large and small architectural practices and the somewhat premature predictions of “the death of the city” while humanity learned to appreciate their immediate neighbourhoods while in lockdown.
