The Covid-19 lockdowns caused people worldwide to be confined to
their homes for longer and on a greater scale than ever before.
This forced many unprecedented changes to the way we treat domestic
space - as relationships shifted between the public and the private
worlds, and homes were rapidly adapted to accommodate the
additional roles of schools, offices, gyms, restaurants,
making-spaces and more. Above all, our understanding of the home as
a site to support and enhance the well-being of its inhabitants
changed in a variety of novel ways. Interiors in the Era of Covid
is a collection of essays which explore the complex ways in which
our inside spaces (contemporary and historical) have responded to
Covid-19 and other human crises. With case studies ranging from US
and Europe to Japan, China, Colombia, and Bangladesh, this is a
truly global work which examines wide-ranging subjects from
home-working and home technologies, to the impact of lockdown on
people's identities, gender roles in the home, and the realities of
domestic living with Covid in refugee camps. Exploring the roles
played by designers (both amateur and professional) in
accommodating changing requirements and anticipating future ones -
whether Covid or beyond - this book is a must-read for students and
researchers in interior design, architecture, architectural and
design history, and anyone interested in the home and the
relationships between health and design.
The definitive monograph of internationally acclaimed designers -
creators of the Tip Ton and the 2012 Olympic Torch. Collaborators

work to date, this book offers a unique, 360-degree view of their
approach and working methods. Stunning images explore their work
thematically, while six essays provide an exclusive look into
