The domestic environment is the centre of a great deal of attention in contemporary design communities, yet it is poorly understood. This paper is concerned to elaborate how research approaches may be combined for the practical purposes of making available such settings to the design process. We present the work of members of the two design groups, the RCA and CSEG, and consider how the two groups used probes and ethnographic insights to inform their understanding of context sensitive design.
