While the world was looking forward for the pandemic to be over, as designers, it is important to rethink the way activities will be carried out then, for it may not be the same. Some activities tend to merge the indoors with the outdoors formulating a datum where people usually socialize in. For instance, the relationship between restaurants/cafes and the outdoor spaces associated with it whether directly connected or served by it in any way. It is predicted that some modifications will be applied on the current strategies of outdoor spaces design in order to adapt to the new lifestyle. This paper aims to analyse some actions observed during the period of the lockdown faced in 2020 in different destinations around the world in order to understand the needs of users at that time. Further studies are carried out to study how to apply those ideas in Egypt in a way coherent with the cultural assets of the society. Finally, this paper will be able to transform an existing urban space into a model of potential to become “the new normal” prototype in Egypt and particularly in Alexandria.
