Abstract

The virosal coronation of the world 2019-20 (21?) raises philosophical, political and vital concerns and calls or demands to think again about the already devalued theoretical-disciplinary arsenal of architecture.

For the time being, the virtuous restoration of the Foucaultian hell of panoptics and different models of reclusion and therapeutic segregation of bodies can be seen. What took a century to counteract - that insidious functionalist vocation of separating, distinguishing and classifying, which perhaps unites the ideas of the end of the 18th century with the spirit of the CIAM - is reborn, valued by the hygienists who cry out for help from specialist-spatialists who ensure social distances and porosities as well as manage to make the lockdowns more pleasant. With concerts of balconies and unusual plant arrangements and various effects to avoid spatial deficits.
