Who Owns Our Future? How to Find a Home?

While the contours of the next few decades were partly clear 50 or 100 years ago, it is a daring attempt to predict the future nowadays. The marketability and influence of the rapidly evolving innovations of technology are often uncertain, our vision of the future may seem to be dim as well. We do not only desire to satisfy our basic human needs regarding our living space, but our intentions to live comfortably and our attraction towards everyday experiences have also become a fundamental part of our life. We frequently replace our objects with newer and newer ones, even with smart devices that make our work and free time much simpler. The direction in developing these smart equipment is rather obvious, the goal is to solve everything right now or possibly in the future by means of the same object. It is a sensible question to ask how these improvements will affect our everyday life in the future, and it is also a rational possibility that we will not carry a mobile phone in our pocket, and our home will function perfectly without a desktop computer. How will this development manifest and influence our habitat? Numerous eye-catching houses are built on a daily basis. Contemporary architects experiment with designing extraordinary forms and spatial connections, as well as they use surprising materials. In some cases the architecture of the present is rationalized merely in interesting proportions and exaggerated spaces. In order to build these individually unique buildings, solvent clients are needed and a spacious estate, which is not really natural. On the other hand, it is also visible that architecture has reached a turning point according to which a nice form is not enough in itself. The aesthetics have to match the possibilities (advantages, disadvantages) and technological innovations of the era, thus we have to discover beauty, excitement and system again. The challenge of the cities today and in the future is to solve the problems of affordable housing. Our current apartments are compact and reflect creative ideas in most of the cases. The topic of small living spaces has to be examined from two perspectives, on the one hand, the number of newcomers to a certain area, and on the other hand, the increased price per square meter. The optimized, and by that also minimized living spaces make us consider not only the fundamental human needs, but we also have to take the aforementioned altered lifestyle into account. It is a fact that a few square meters should be enough to have an affordable solution. A flat has to be simple and easy to use, and it also has to be the reflection of individual needs and demands, in order to form our spaces by ourselves for a reasonable price. The article represents a possible apartment concept for the future and its effects on the environment with its urban context.
