Double Space

Explanation: Double Space creates a safe environment for people to interact and have conversations face-to-face without masks on. The clear plastic window provides safety from Covid transmissions and allows people to express their emotions and feel less isolated in a time of unease and turmoil.

Lesson: Nowadays, clear communication is a real struggle and people refuse to acknowledge or even listen to each other’s opinions, ideas, and beliefs. The presence of masks has only made this more challenging. We have realized that we miss out on so much context and emotion when facial expressions are removed from our daily interactions.
