POST COVID-19: Although we have found ways to adapt with new regulations and contamination prevention measures, it is evident that this once thought to be a short lived pandemic, has permanently changed the social, and spatial preferences of the global society. Sky Inn is a solution to raise the standard of living in a such a turbulent condition. Camping outdoors, along the central Han-river may not have resembled the wildlife camping sites. However, there is no doubt the program played a vital role in offering a quick escape to the city nature, closer to the water and open sky. It offered an escape from the concrete jungle and bustling, traffic-intense, urban life in Seoul. However, it is difficult to imagine the sight of a crowded camping site bringing peace to the mind, but more of fear and uneasiness. COVID has brought us closer to the benefits of solitude and Sky Inn is a new outdoor tent to encourage the new acquired taste of the urban dwellers.
