Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to analyze the course and evaluate the results of activities as part of the design workshops of the design studio conducted in spring 2020, during the Covid-19 pandemic, with students of the Faculty of Architecture at the Andrzej Frycz Modrzewski Krakow University and the Department of Architecture at the Faculty of Engineering and Design of the Hosei University in Tokyo. The topic of the workshop was to study the concept of public housing in the 21st century using the example of the Nishi-Yamato Danchi housing estate built in Tokyo in 1960–1970. The study used materials collected by the author – participant and observer of the workshops. The results of the research confirm the possibility of practical use of generally available resources of visualization of the earth’s surface obtained thanks to aerial and satellite remote sensing, as well as effective communication via the Internet during teaching activities. International design workshops broaden the participants’ knowledge of residential architecture, encourage the improvement of the quality of student education, and are also a source of research topics, for example on transcultural architecture.
