Living: so much more fun and made so much easier with technology

This is an article in the Guardian (it’s a bit older than a year, but that doesn’t bother. It is about the idea of it: how technology can help us redesign our cities (and lives).  Technology can make such a huge difference for future cities. Technological developments will promise us an exercising future for living in a city. You can find a little movie about new ideas for urban living below. The next signs will give you an idea about how I think we will live in the future.

The combination between tablets and living becomes more and more specific. You can choose colours for your house with the “TapPaint app”.  This app makes it possible to see different colours and tones on your rooms. You only have to see through your display and notice the perfect colour.  

You can draw your futuristic house in 3D with a LixPen, and it is more specific than a 3D printer. With this option people are able to design their own house with their own hand. Technology and customizing are coming together with this product.: a interesting combination. I think that this can prevent miscommunication and it is innovative.  


A decoration design engineering located in China, Suzhou, had made 10 houses with a gigantic 3D printer. And this fact is not the only interesting thing; the houses were made in only one day. The fact that we can build houses with a printer is amazing. This is’t new anymore but it seems to be the first time that this has happened in such a short time. It may take some time to create such houses worldwide, but the company hopes that the technology will become better and well known. It can be used to make eco-friendly and affordable houses. Interesting how fast those technological developments are developing!
