The lockdown has imposed a systemic shift online of fundamental activities, such as work, education and interpersonal communication. In particular, remote working has shown advantages in reducing office management costs and has stimulated a rethinking in the relationship between home and work. In this scenario, we want to reflect on two possible aspects: one relating to the reinterpretation of the offices from the perspective of the flipped workspace, deriving from the didactic model of the flipped classroom in the school sector; the other related to the reconfiguration of homes, which acquire a public-private dimension with interchange-filter areas.
