[発表要旨]
Colombo situating at the center of Indian Ocean is a historical hub of trade networks. Everyday lives in downtown Colombo are changing at a dizzy speed.

Using an approach of architecture that set space and time as a platform for world understanding, we can grasp a life world as a set of different places.

  First objective of the study is to depict dynamisms of everyday lives at the downtown from British colonial period through coming of nation state Ceylon to present through tracing histories and connections between a lane named Ghaus Moidheen Mawata where many people dwell and other surrounding places.

  What relations dose each life in Colombo as a micro activity have with Ceylon, Indian Ocean or Global macro events?

  Second objective is to consider theoretical framework to connect micro scale perspective and macro scale perspective and to present a perspective for contemporary world from a view point of everyday lives of Ghaus Moidheen Mawata.
