Abstract: 
The COVID-19 pandemic has completely changed the way of learning in all types and levels of education, including architectural education. All parties, lecturers, students and employees carry out activities from home online, including in this context, the Bachelor of Architecture study program, which is always carried out offline, especially the design studio course. Although initially, there were concerns about the decline in the quality of education due to the issue of spatial transformation and virtual learning activities, in the end, it was passed and showed other positive findings. The research problem is that old teaching and learning methods have undergone continuous adjustments in the post-pandemic era, so it requires reflection so that future hybrid teaching systems can be more planned. The research objective is to analyse online lectures’ negative and positive impacts to improve offline educational performance through reflection. The library method is combined with analysing experiences during online learning to assess participation. Research steps: 1) literature and observation data collection, 2) analysis, and 3) class participation. Research findings in the form of saving resources and classroom space. The novelty of the research is in the form of a pattern of education delivery as a suggestion for post-pandemic hybrid education activities.
