As technology advances, homes may start to set aside a 6x6-foot room for virtual reality entertainment and forgo a 1,000-square foot home theater.

Elaborate kitchens may not be necessary when food services like Blue Apron and Amazon Prime reduce the need for food storage, and 3D printing creates houseware on demand.
