Futurama: The DIY Home of the Future

This environment, created through the use of screens and interactive elements, demonstrates a new context and redefinition of the "DIY Home in 2012." By focusing on the broader ambient experience, it illustrates how emerging behavior, attitudes and technologies will fuse to create new ideas about space, content, interface, connectivity, personal engagement and how this will open up fresh opportunities for DIY lifestyles and environments.
