I am doing my Thesis on Time and Architecture, and have found out some things that are very interesting along the way. The first book that I would suggest would be ANYTIME. It is one book in a series of ANY- books that are all architecturally focused. It is mainly a compilation of essays, but a very good resource.

After I have read Einstein, Hawking, Davies, etc..
I have realized that speed has an enormous influence on time and size... I would love to discuss it with you if you would like: daley12@hotmail.com

Oh: The Dancing Wu Li Masters would also be a good book, I am forgetting the author though...

i ankur.

as sarah suggested the books of hawkings would be of help in understand the concepts of speed and time...

do read them...but what exactly r u looking at something that talks about architecture only?

i had done a thesis on transportation....and midway i realized the significance of speed on architecture...of how architecture changes for a peerson moving in or out of it at certain velocities...and the same form in a static .

r u thinking something on those lines?

if yes...

then lets talk.
