By: Language: English Series: Building ; 257(7744) 8 May 1992, 50-51(2)Publication details: 1992Subject(s): Summary: Technology for automated house design has been developed, but as yet few homes employing it have been built in Britain. There are around 1 million in the USA, but the building industry here claims the British market would not sustain the prices necessary. A NEDO report ("Home electronics - routes to the market") challenges this assumption, whilst experts suggest the lack of standardisation is delaying progress.
