The following draws on the formats of diaries, first-person vignettes [6], and field notes. Through this we focus on the first stages of the process of designing-with/living-with through cohabitation: setting During the past five years, the first author has been transforming his home-a flat in the city center-into the place he wants to live [1]: an entanglement of technologies, plants, humans, and others; a place wher
