      The workshop played with the extreme idea of the future in which transforming, adapting, reconstructing, demolishing, greening will become the new basic set of architectural tools. We will use these phenomena in a creative way as a possible response to current social, ecological and pandemic challenges. Emphasizing on three major scales: the level of the details, the level of semi-public and the level of public space, we attempt to rearrange and reorganise spaces of general typologies. With minimal but innovative modification on commonly used furniture, we deal with problems and inconveniences caused by the need to preserve safety distance and the need to socialize at the same time. For instance, we came up with the idea of door handles used by foot, individual chairs with a desk, a public bench where we can gather together while keeping the safety distances and so on. Focusing on a typical block of flats in the urban grid of a Greek city, we propose simple and smart application on existing spaces that could solve the issues deriving from the current situation. We do so by proposing new ways the occupants could commonly use their balconies, their rooftop and their communal outdoor area. Finally, by changing the arrangement and determining different circulatory patterns in public spaces, we manage to give existing public space typologies new life in the time of the pandemic. Such typologies are the public bus and an open-air market. Our goal isn’t only to preserve safety during the pandemic, but also to present solutions that could possibly transform this negative situation into a positive one.
