Abstract

Of the articles selected for the call for papers Coronavirus, city, architecture. Perspectives of the architectural and urban design, this article makes a critique of their content by grouping them in some thematic blocks to better organize knowledge also for the purposes of transmissibility. A complex and variegated picture emerges in which the themes of the call are declined with respect to contexts that are also very distant as in the case of Korea or China. Useful reflections and operational indications that will surely feed the disciplinary research of architectural and urban design.
