Summary/Abstract: If architecture is a framework for everyday life, this study will analyse how it responds to a crisis. The exceptional situation of the pandemic and of the state of emergency established on the Romanian territory makes it necessary to question thee mergency architecture. In such a situation, we ask ourselves if architecture does not acquire a therapeutic role and if the home - through its new function of isolation space - does not even become a tool to limit the spread of an epidemic. Moreover, such a crisis situation in turn has a significant impact on human social life and mainly influences the way of housing.
