The Dualism of Reality
We are investigating the relevancy of reality in a profession where imagination/fantasy is required. In the progress of defining reality and fantasy throughout the semester, we understood reality as a general knowledge rules or guidance that justifies or bounds fantasy. As we explore further the definition of reality, we realized that reality is actually consist of complex forces that could be paired up into categories as duality: technology - tradition, social - economy, politics - urbanity, etc.
Based on our case study, we found that project that meddling in between the dualism force is the one that emerges as sustainable element. For an instance Glenn Murcutt blends aboriginal tradition and modern technology construction in a balance intensity of dualism. In a case where one of the force of the dualism is abondened, the sustainable element often begins to evaporate. For an instance Architect like Zaha Hadid who is using advanced technology which is outbalance tradition. And on the other hand, building that design customarily traditional that imbalance technology is no longer suitable for our current society.

Davin and Dany, it is an interesting topic and it is important that you grounded fantasy by using "boundaries" or rules. However, at the end of your text, I am not sure that you can substantiate this assertion, or whether it is necessary at all: "In a case where one of the force of the dualism is abondened, the sustainable element often begins to evaporate. For an instance Architect like Zaha Hadid who is using advanced technology which is outbalance tradition. And on the other hand, building that design customarily traditional that imbalance technology is no longer suitable for our current society."
