Conflict

Conflict is a state of discord caused by the actual or perceived opposition of needs, values and interests. A conflict can be internal (within oneself) or external (between two or more individuals/themes or concepts). Conflict as a concept can help explain many aspects of social life such as social disagreement, conflicts of interests, and fights between individuals, groups, or organizations.

1.What opportunities are created by the conflicts in your proposal? Should these conflicts be 'resolved' or 'maintained'? Why?

Project’s proposal was to create an unbuilt architecture that matches our theme of conflict which was enclosed, exposed, hard/soft, public/private, affordable and unaffordable. Although it conflicted or was against the word “visually pleasing”, it created opportunities and clarified our intent. These conflicts should be both maintained and resolved accordingly.

2. What imagery would you use to display your conflict?

What is a conflict cycle?

A conflict cycle is based on our negative ideas and views of other people, so if we have been told something bad about them or have not had a good experience when we meet them we react towards that person in a bad way when we next meet them.

However if we have a positive experience when we meet someone then most likely we will react kindly to them next time.
