When society is interrupted by some adversity, people have to adapt to the new lifestyle indefinitely. Change occurs when events get out of hand and you are forced to evolve to meet needs. In emergency situations it is when society is forced to adapt, at this point it is how a designer satisfies the new need or opens a new gap to be explored. Design begins with a need seen as a window to improve the lifestyle of society, emergencies drive to create or improve solutions in an effective way. The objective of this study is to determine the actions that were taken in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, centralized in the Guatemalan context.
