NEO HYGIENE
How new insights in hygiene with the global outbreak of the coronavirus will change the design of public spaces in the 21st century.
The Covid-19 virus is causing a global economic crisis which is larger than any crisis we have seen since the Second World War. The damage is that large, it will change business cases when it comes to the design of public spaces. Major questions will arise about how a future pandemic can be prevented. New insights in hygiene create opportunities to rethink how we interact with our public spaces.
Neo Hygiene is an exploration on how we can make public spaces more fun by interacting more with our bodies instead of fingers.
