From orbiting chrome pleasure domes to underwater condominium complexes to Barbarella's hot pink, shag-carpeted home/spaceship, the home of the future maintains a powerful hold on our cultural imagination. Ironically, the dreams of the home of the future and their technologies often tell us more about the present - and how we wish it would be - than they do about the future. In this course, we will learn to identify the cultural trends that underlie the homes of the future imagined and built in the past, construct critical arguments about the technologies for the home of the future being designed in the present, and develop designs for our own dream homes of the future.
