Design is a profession that focuses on solutions. In
everyday circumstances and extraordinary ones as well,
designers endeavor to solve problems through adaptability,
inventiveness, and resourcefulness. Over the past few
months, as the design trade-and all businesses-strived to
revise and reinvent under the strains of the COVID-19 crisis,
so too did we pivot this issue of i+D to reflect all that was
around us in the design world and beyond.

Design businesses of all sizes and focus rallied not only
to aid front-line and essential workers through the design
and manufacturing of masks, gowns, face shields, protective
barriers, respirators, and more ("All In," p. 18), but also
to design temporary overflow medical facilities, and to
help one another through the formation of support groups,
participation in webinars outlining best practices for during
and after shelter-in-place orders, and the creation of uplifting
newsletters and social media to help us all get through.
When the 2020 editorial calendar was planned, this
issue was programmed to investigate urban sprawl and
the changing faces of cities, suburbs, homes, and offices
("Designing the Future," p. 28); the importance of a
connection to nature ("Changing the Landscape," p. 42);
and the codes and zoning that go along with these crucial
topics ("Brave New World," p. 36). When evaluating what a
design magazine should cover in the midst of a global health
emergency, these topics seemed more relevant than ever. In
fact, design itself, seemed more relevant than ever. Amid the
pandemic, these discussions shifted to tackle an emerging
reality that could not have been predicted even earlier this
year, but as the stories developed, a commonality prevailed:
Faced with this new world and all the questions it raises,
design will find the answers.
Mahatma Gandhi is regarded for the insightful directive
that we should all be the change we wish to see in the world.
Design always has looked to inspire a positive shift-
be it in an individual, a neighborhood, a major city, or
the planet overall. That innate shared desire among design
professionals to incite progressive impact will be center
stage as we forge ahead together and design the solutions
that will lead the world into an entirely new future, one that
keeps us connected, keeps us inspired, and, most of all, keeps
us safe.
