We are certainly there now. (Case in point: 50 Insanely Useful Smart Home Products You Can Buy Right Now) Those who have played Xbox Kinect will have experienced a little of what it's like to live in a digitally submersive world like that featured in the movie Minority Report, where a wave of your controller-free hand has cause and effect on a screen in front of you. Well, this prototype by Openarch shows us a Smart Home where screens are no longer required, a home where the walls and floors become viewing stations at which to play games, video chat, surf the internet and use a multitude of handy household app style functions: It's heartening to note that they have produced a real functioning prototype and it is not one of those futuristic concept videos that we usually see floating about.

This is "the first home designed from scratch to incorporate a digital layer connecting the house and its elements to the Internet," says Openarch. "Its inhabitants lead a new digital and connected life. It is flexible and thanks to its ability to transform, it can adapt to any condition that the user requires."
