In order to truly understand `user' experiences of intelligent buildings, a research and development framework must be developed that takes into account the discontinuities between AmI and previous technologies, as well as producing rich and detailed knowledge of the `user', embedded in the historical, socio-political and cultural context of his/her life. In addition, the mechanics of `creative misuse' of technology must be better understood, in order to extrapolate from past technologies to `intelligent agents' and their use in intelligent buildings. This paper represents an initial attempt to formulate such a framework, with particular reference to understanding the distinguishing features of intelligent buildings, and how they could influence `user' needs, attitudes and behaviour.
