The miniaturization and networking of computer processors as well as the digitalization and wireless transmission of data are opening up new possibilities for domestic environments. But what consequences will this have on residential architecture? Emerging architectural firms were invited to develop visionary answers to this question. Their extraordinary architectural visions are presented in detail for the first time in this publication. The essays are supplemented by a section providing comprehensive, graphically attractive data on demographic and technical developments that will shape our living environments in the near future.
