Since the outbreak of the pandemic, the A&D industry had no choice but to get kick-started the creativity to ensure a tight grip to control the severe spreading of the disease.

Covid-19 broke the conventional working principle (time-consuming execution) that existed in the industry before and rather came forward with the quickest effective solutions.

Strategies were brought and the primary focus was on the following:

- Increased focus on sustainable architecture

- Increased attention to public safety in the designs

- Innovative designs were implemented to avoid social mingling and more.

In this period of crisis, some new elements were picked and used as an architectural element in the alternative designs and patterns.

The primary aim behind the emergence of new architectural elements:

- To assure responsible architecture

- To safeguard the situation

- Help people maintain social distancing and more

Barricades, tapes, fiberglass(for partitions), laminated frames are a few among the top list of materials that were used to bring out a change.

The pandemic has led to the quick execution of designs and strategies to assure safety for the public. Architects came up with innovative ideas to control the viral outbreak bit by bit.
