Housing has evolved with social changes over time. Through agricultural and industrial societies, the family structure has shifted from extended families to nuclear families, and the meaning of housing has changed from a place of shelter to a place of accommodation and rest. However, the role of the family has weakened as it failed to keep pace with the changing times, leading to many families being in danger of collapse, housing functions not meeting the required levels, and problems accumulating.
Digital transformation will bring about massive social change and revolutionize future housing. Digital Living Infrastructures, such as telecommuting, tele-education and telemedicine, and digital cultural experiencess, will allow housing to replace most of the current urban functions. The function of housing will expand and become more important.

In the future, family members will be provided with most of the quality of life functions through future housing, which is essential for the realizing future city and future society. Future smart home should be a foundation to ensure a happy life for citizens.
