Definitely more compact on the whole, somewhere between the cramped apartments too many of us are forced to live in, but smaller than the huge suburban ranch houses no one freaking needs, think spacious duplex. Easy clean materials for floors and counters, probably something a mega-roomba can easily navigate, something capable of moving furniture as well as sweeping cheerios, the only real automation, a modern hoover everyone can afford. Dedicated spaces for a central control computer system, nothing fancy, just enough to run the thermostat, make a grocery list and manage the wifi router, or select tonight's movie from the TV in the living room.
