The dynamic nature of the design process brings about unexpectedness, uncertainty, and adaptability, which can be advantageous in evoking situated creativity within design contexts. The dynamic design context also facilitates unexpected discoveries that emerge from introducing new variables, which may sometimes be based on revisiting past instances and enables creativity to be revealed. Similarly, the new concepts brought into daily life, as well as architectural design and architectural education with the COVID-19 pandemic, created an exceptional opportunity to explore creativity and unexpected discoveries within the new variables. In this context, an online design workshop was organized to address the necessity of creating new architectural spaces catering to the pandemic's changing requirements. The outcomes were analyzed with summative content analysis and relation maps for in-depth readings that provide essential benefits to create new design methodologies for a more comprehensive educational environment and creativity in architectural design.
