6 Homebuilders Predict What Houses Will Look Like in 20 Years
"As healthy living becomes more and more mainstream in the United States, we think people will continue to question what surrounds them,” says Ted Caplow, principal of Caplow Manzano, a homebuilder in Miami. “Most of us spend about half our lives in our homes, surrounded by chemicals and toxins embedded in almost every surface that are easily released into the air by time, decay, damage, or moisture.”
Caplow predicts we will have eliminated much of these unwanted materials in the next 20 years and replaced them with alternative solutions, such as polished concrete ceilings, encapsulated insulation, or ductless air conditioning systems.
