Abstract

The COVID 19 pandemic has installed restrictions which alter the ways of inhabiting space. A series of quantitative restrictions on physical distance, barriers, the ways to move and capacity limitations in collective spaces, have proliferated, using the human body merely as anthropometric instrumentalization. Here is proposed an approximation through criticism and representations, confronting these facts with the set of standards developed by Ernst Neufert in his classic handbook (Bauentwurfslehre, 1936), who declared man as “measure of all things”. In pandemics, Neufert’s relationships of proximity and occupation seem to be temporarily suspended, and this fact is recognized as a visual opportunity to, as interpretation, make an update of its classic representations, adapted to the new spatial conditions, and give rise to a reflection on the suspension of collective and urban life that this implies, and the absents bodies of the public spaces.
