Homestead 3.0

Family sizes are changing, and our homes are adapting to accommodate new social and environmental behaviours.UK households are becoming more integrated, connected and multifunctional. By 2020, blended technology will become the norm. Communal spaces – whether within the home or the wider community –will be more common. And, with 12m of us potentially working from our apartments or houses, the concept of the home office will be redefined.
