rise and high-rise buildings.
* Ceilings and walls will be able
to change color, shape and texture.
* Products and materials will be
able to be replicated at any time at a
moment's notice.
-South Valley Drywall
In a hundred years,

we hope we are
discussing wall assemblies that are
more concerned with maintaining
safe living environments as we begin
to inhabit extraterrestrial space such
as the moon and perhaps Mars.
-Plastic Components
We believe we will move toward effi-

ciencies in all buildings from the size
of the building to the carbon footprints
and energy use. Our housing will be
smaller and more efficient in the use
of energy and how it interacts with the
workplace. We will have robots doing
most of the hard labor utilizing factories
with all construction components being
prefabricated for delivery to projects.
We believe that our buildings will be
completely multi-purpose with the
capacity to grow a food source, process waste products for energy, have a
work area that eliminates unnecessary
commutes and energy consumption.
Buildings will be self-sufficient-processing waste into energy and water,
204

allowing for green roofs, green walls
and products creating oxygen that are
a blend of natural and manufactured.
And, lest I forget, we will be teleported almost everywhere eliminating
much of the transportation as we
know today.
-Baker Triangle
There will be smart

buildings in the
next 100 years. The layout previously
done in a contractor's office will be
completed by a programmable device/
app, something similar to a GPS device. Robotics will be the norm for all
construction sites. A lot more product
will be recycled. Buildings will be taller,
taking up less horizontal space. There
will be a lot fewer construction jobs.
The normal retirement age will be 75.
-Interior Finish Contractors Association
How exciting to think about the world

of construction in 2118! We have no
doubt that a lot of the construction
labor we have today will be replaced
by robotics of some type. Automation
and prefabrication will be commonplace compared to what we are doing
today. Construction materials will
be produced much faster due to automation in manufacturing and the
use of rapidly renewable materials.
All projects will be built in a virtual

format, then prefabricated and mostly
assembled offsite. Then the materials
and prefab assemblies will be delivered
by self-driving trucks to the job site
where they will be unloaded, stocked
and assembled by robots. Humans and
robots will work together to physically
build the project. 3-D printing will
do most of the onsite work for us.
On new projects, many items will be
3-D printed right on the job site while
smaller, new projects will simply be
3-D printed. 3-D printing will be
adapted to provide most things we
need, including clothing and food. 3-D
printers will be like the microwave of
the prior century, where every house
will have one because it is an essential
part of everyday life.
-Heartland Acoustics & Interiors, Inc.
History recognizes that building archi-

tecture is a complicated and beautiful
art. Our homes, schools, hospitals,
hotels and office buildings are sculptural and functional. From the very
first concepts, taking shape in line and
plane, creativity initiates the process
of providing safety and welfare in
our communities. Therefore, as time
progresses, we find new, innovative
ways to facilitate and achieve a better-built environment. Nevertheless,
as options multiply for individuals,

what constitutes a community, and
how does it function?
The "Global Village," whereby
communications has eliminated the
restrictions of distance and allowed for
the integration of cultures. Whereas
physical and holographic travel bring
the world or worlds into reach. What
kind of spaces will be required? Does
the proliferation of choices emanate
from the technology, or does it drive
the technological advances that serve
our imaginations?
Today's building innovations include, but aren't limited to, self-healing
concrete, carbon nanotubes, aerogels,
smart walls and surfaces, swarm construction and the like. How we access,
apply and optimize such enhancements
remains a mystery to the general
population. However, as possibilities
present themselves, culture realizes its
"needs" (could you do without your
smartphone?).
Hollywood projects a future of space
travel and colonization, mass metropolises, android and robot civilizations.
Some of this is already here and now.
One hundred years from now,
our buildings will have technology
that ultimately enhances the lives of
those who are using them, but not at
the expense of our humanity. How
do we identify with the space? What
