Architecture post Covid-19. Using proxemics in spatial design
The outbreak of coronavirus and the worldwide spread of the concept of social distancing have made it necessary to reorganize the space around us according to new measures. In this regard, it could be useful to deepen the study of proxemics, a discipline theorized in the 1960s by the American anthropologist Edward Hall with the aim of understanding the meaning that men attribute to the concepts of distance and space. Since we will need to think of a new kind of architecture, Hall's theories will be able to offer a precious help that covers all the scales, from the city to the neighbourhood to the single building. We have the chance, not to be missed, to review the model of the contemporary city: let’s make it an opportunity to rethink spaces on a human scale in order to reach a new normal.
