How the home will be disrupted and transformed by radical technological change.

From the internet of things and the Smart Home, to the complete rejection of any fixed abode, FutureProofing hears how our ideas about home will be transformed in the 21st century.

How the home will be disrupted and transformed by radical technological change. 

Our homes may experience more disruption than anywhere else because of the forces unleashed by technological change.  The notions we have about home - a private, secure, stable place where you can shut out the world and just be yourself - are under threat from technology and economic change.  

From the internet of things and the Smart Home, to the complete rejection of any permanent fixed abode, FutureProofing hears how our ideas about home will be transformed in the 21st century.
