Space is the issue: How we optimize the usage of our space. Take a look at Kasita, there in Texas. Is an interesting concept of a space for one o two people, no much bigger than a container, prefab and mobile (you did once a video of that one). Maybe microliving is part of the key, then again, looking at a home of the future witout considering the urbanism of the future is, I believe, a mistake. Most urban planners today think of the suburban sprawling as a huge and costly mistake, the city of the future looks more dense, people-centric and walkable. Maybe is time to revisit Paolo Soleri's Arcology concept... maybe the Home of the Future is actually a modular appartment. The point is, if we're going to look 50 years into the future, we have to see a bigger picture.

Absolutely. Would be great if they discussed modern building techniques, like Matt Risinger does on his KZbin channel. So not just the electronics, but a glance at the material and architectural science. Also would have been neat if they could have added geothermal heating and cooling, though I don't know if that's practical in a pre-existing suburban environment that this home seems to have been installed in. Assuming that may have been one of the "zoning issues" mentioned at the end of this vid?

What you are missing is: 1. Autonomous Building 2. Zero Energy Building 3. Earthquake, Fire, Flood and Wind Resistant. 4. Made up of new smart, cost and energy efficient durable material. 5. Strong and secure so that it is difficult for a thief to get into it. The important aspect and purpose of a home is to sit, lay and sleep comfortably with peace of mind. Where you can study with focus in case if you love reading alot or working from home. A good home can be cleaned with ease. A good home also need roof top terrace with good view of outside. Location of home depends on electricity, access to clean water, proper sewerage, availability of basic facilities at nearby distances like grocery and food store, hospital and school/college. Use of IOT and gadgets doesn't make the home of future. It will only give access to corporates to invade your privacy and have 24/7 eye on you and your lifestyle.

Looking at a car from even 5 years ago you can see how dated the operating system for the built in entertainment system looks. I think the home of the future will have to be less integrated and more open. I don't want anything in my future home that locks me into a tech from 2018.

Each room is a separate module that can be purchased, making overall ownership more affordable. Each module has it's own hookups for electrical, plumbing. Automated sliding doors, for interior and exterior. Local power and water recycling, to make the most use of resources. External water tanks that plug into the grid, same as power. Wireless power stations in every room. Is a device that sits in ceiling, like a light, and emits waves (whatever the technical terms are, this exists already). Windows that double as viewing screens.

This was a great series and brought up many questions with how we do things and how we live and what technology can offer today to help make things more efficient. I thought about your question of rethinking how a home should be. I personally feel that the home of the future, would be more minimalistic at least on the surface. Instead of having a counter full of appliances such as a water filter, coffee maker, or a blender. The future it would be built into the counter. A nozzle rises and dispense your beverage, Filtered water or your favorite coffee on demand. I feel like for now our home of the future will be filled with gadgets that help make out lives easier but the next step would be to integrate these gadgets so they don’t appear that they are even there until you need them. My next thought was the design of the home. Not now but generations from now I can see the home of the future will become modular but not in how we think of it now. When I say modular I mean that our our stuff is all contained in a section of the house say a life module and this module can be easily moved. Say you got a new job a hundred miles away. Rather than making the 100 mile commute to work, you can move your life module to a new home station that will include its own kitchen, living room, and bathroom. You want to upgrade your home, you can just move too a upgraded home station. Even better if you just want to try living in a new city or state, with a command the life module would lock the items down and an automated transport would pick it up and the next thing you know you are in a new city. I do see our city start to build up with buildings to help with the over population of certain city’s.

If our food printer can't supply some special ingredients they would be automatically ordered and delivered. Food waste becomes fertilizer, cleaned waste water plant water. Same for things. Plastics, metals, circuit components, and flexible polymers would be stored. Need a new microwave? Print one up. Just don't forget to throw the old one in the recycler to keep the printer stocked! If you need something too complicated (like a new flexible transparent phone you can wrap on your wrist) your house will order after determining it can't print it.

It’s more sustainable to upgrade what’s been built over the last 100 years than keep dreaming green space housing developments. That being said, evolution of human centered design (simple to use...) is what’s going to get adoption, and the continued price decrease in computers and batteries will make the home tech more approachable.

I have a idea about a future house. We have 3D printing on certain foods but it takes a really long time because of how 3D printing works. In a future scenario maybe there could be a way to atomically reconstruct food with added nutrients That would allow us to eat almost anything and still get the daily recommendation of nutrients. Hopefully it would come with with a information page of all the base amount of contents in the food so we can still eat healthy, or maybe it could miraculously still construct the same food with out the same molecular structure but still look exactly the same and have the same taste. I can only imagine the idea where there is no fridge in the future just a machine that can recreate your desires on a plate while still having all the daily required supplements. On top of that if i'm thinking about something that can recreate things on a molecular level i guess i could add in medicine like an Advil or prescribed medicine or drinks. Basically anything consumable. Wild thought: a cake made of pizza in many layers with the outside with cheese filled crust and cheese baked on the outside maybe less inside just in case of fear for constipation and inside customization by the layers.

Led lights including mood lighting, built-in wifi, "Smart glass" = no windows, smart tv and other appliances all controlled by voice AI.

This presumes the continuation of the suburban single home model connected by freeways to work centers. We do know that the percentage of our population living in cities versus rural areas will rise, the question is will there be increased population density housing, improved transportation or more utilization of telecommunications not whether or not the fridge or thermostat will be "smart". As to the kitchen, we've gone from the communal bakeries and neighborhood restaurants of ancient Rome to the personal kitchens of today so the question is whether or not delivered prepared foods could be popularized, evidence from the pneumatic tubes of Chicago in the 30's indicates they would probably not be popularized but we do have meal replacement services, personal chef services, outlets such as Boston Chicken, mail order services like Swann and internet companies like Blue Apron so there is at least a niche market for outsourced food preparation. In some areas, omitting full kitchens allow for much smaller apartments to be leased than would be allowed by current code and this could be a driver for outsourced food prep.

The Earthship houses of Taos, New Mexico have already exceeded what this example of the "Home of the Future" has done. Integration of the green house into living quarters with self contained sewage treatment and solar thermal power is an advancement beyond your container box with windows.

I have to wonder how much the total cost of this home was.

the home of the future should include the solar garden with composte made out of biological garbage and left overs from the kitchen. Also all this kitchen left overs and biological trash could be use for natural gas production for heating or other way to produce energy. Also the water from the washing machine shoul be filtered and reused for watering gardens outside. Maximize the living green walls all around the building. The whole house should be a living invitation for insects, butterflies and birds to stay; get food and make the house a support for the environment imcuding the rest of the animals around it.

If I were rich I would try to make a home that looked like it was from, say, The Hobbit, but also had all the latest tech working behind the scenes.

In my home/world of the future, I would have a big post box for packages that works both ways. Keyless phoneless entry. Service which everybody would use to share tools and resources. Also I would have way less things in general.
