Abstract This paper examines the notion of a building event by exploring the interaction between residents, interviewers, a video-camera and the building technology of the window. The effect of that interaction is 'a view'. The windows and views in this paper belong to a high-rise multi-storey residential estate: Red Road, Glasgow. The paper argues that the view is not simply a framing of a scene, but a socio-technical achievement.
