the concept of dualities is rarely explained as part of architectural process of teaching - more so the expression of duality in the tangible process of design is required - for instance how did the notion of duality emerge in ronchamp. cn modern technology and oour new software also encompass this kind of duality - is it an out dated concept of the twentieth century - there are so many other happening issues now -

kind of dualities is being talked about.Is it opposites? Prob they do..For eg the House by architectect Charles Correa that has in the same house both the summer and winter sections.A house as a concept that can negotiate with the opposites of summer and winter alike.. Are we talking of something like that ?
