First of all, our thoughts are with anyone who may be sick or who is caring for a sick relative. People\u2019s health must come first, and work can seem insignificant when we are faced with a human crisis on this scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As well as our physical health, the mental toll of the COVID 19 outbreak is weighing on everyone, particularly those creative minds within the architecture and design industries. At one end of the spectrum we have the potential for boredom and a lack of motivation when disconnected from our teams. There are also immense logistical challenges associated with undertaking <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/blog\/inspiration\/industry\/ways-architects-can-work-through-coronavirus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tech-heavy work<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at home, with both hardware and software limitations making the production of drawings, models and presentations much more difficult.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the other end of the spectrum, people are battling against anxiety, fueled by a host of social and economic challenges. As well as the restlessness that comes with social distancing, many firms are feeling less certain about retaining clients and securing future work in the coming months. Any resources that help architects to continue their work with the minimum amount of disruption are therefore vital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We scoured the internet and were glad to find a number of incredible resources that aim to support professionals during these uncertain times. We\u2019ve listed a number of them here, and have also included a few marketing and communication suggestions of our own, which should be beneficial to architects planning for the long term.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>1. Apply for a Disaster Relief Loan<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many firms, particularly small and medium-sized studios, have been left vulnerable as clients tighten their purse strings and future work becomes substantially less assured. Architect April Hughes, Board President at AIA Chicago, has written an in-depth guide to help architects in need file for an SBA COVID-19 Disaster Relief Loan to help them through these unsettled times.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI want firm owners to know that applying for a loan like this is not admission of failure, or lack of planning,\u201d says Hughes. \u201cIt\u2019s a helping hand that our government is supplying to make sure that small business (which represents 99.9% of all firms in the US according to the US Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy) stays in business on the other side of this quickly changing global disaster.\u201d <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/how-architecture-firms-can-apply-sba-covid-19-relief-april\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read April Hughes&#8217; guide in full here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>2. Take advantage of design software discounts<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the industry\u2019s largest software makers are responding to the changing needs of architects and designers by extending access to their services during the next few weeks and months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These include companies like Autodesk, Graphisoft and Adobe, which have offered a variety of free access, emergency licenses, and extended grace periods for renewing their products.

Help your team transition to work from home<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For architects that are used to a highly collaborative way of working, switching to remote working can be a daunting logistical challenge. However, with the right structures put in place, it should be possible for firms of all sizes to work efficiently and keep morale up while working from home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Design strategist Evelyn Lee of the <a href=\"https:\/\/practiceofarchitecture.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Practice of Architecture<\/a> has put together an invaluable document outlining ways to work remotely for small, medium, large and extra large firms.

Refresh your collaboration tools<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of software, there are a number of useful messaging and video conferencing tools that make working remotely easier for teams. A number of them are also providing special offers to help companies get started during this period. They include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Slack<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slack strives to replace email by helping users prioritize, sort and respond to communication in a way that suits them. Instead of a single overstuffed inbox, conversations in Slack happen in dedicated spaces called channels. Shared channels enable you to align around common goals with all the people on a project in one space, whether they&#8217;re down the hall or at a different company.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slack is offering <strong>$100 off<\/strong> your team\u2019s subscription when you sign up using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/slack.com\/r\/035a88gb-exr3mt35\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this link<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a great guide on how to make slack work for you, check out our recent article <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/architizer.com\/blog\/practice\/tools\/architecture-and-slack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Young Architect Guide: Transform Your Project Workflow with a Virtual Workspace.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Google docs<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most advanced tool available right now to take advantage of cloud computing is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/refergsuite.app.goo.gl\/GNc6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google\u2019s G Suite<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as it\u2019s the best integrated of the cloud products on offer.
