The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically changed how we work, where we work, and how we communicate and collaborate. The very notion of the studio—the physical office—is in question. This panel will highlight methods and practices that we should and should not bring back to our physical workspaces.

New ability to implement ‘co-creation’ techniques into external projects and community engagement tactics.
