The COVID pandemic has changed all aspects of urban life and set challenges for how we will create cities for a new and better normal. We have learnt a great deal from working together across disciplines. The editors of the special COVID edition of Archnet -IJAR (International Journal of Architectural Research) received an exceptional range and depth of research from across the world. We would like to share with you, in a conversation, the main themes of of this journal; accelerated adoption of digital, web-based technology: the adaptation of the design and use of architectural and urban space and: the confluence of these two aspects in architectural education and the online university campus. The Guest Editors editorial can be read on the link below.
