An investigation into the nature of the experience that developers have with the spaces in which they work and live based on the reflections of the authors describes a few aspects of the structure of developers' experience around the malleability, ownership and control of the spaces and the emotions they induce.

Abstract

We report on an investigation into the nature of the experience that developers have with the spaces in which they work and live based on the reflections of the authors. We describe a few aspects of the structure of developers’ experience around the malleability, ownership and control of the spaces and the emotions they induce, and consider what this may mean for future research.
