The house shaped how we lived, often in ways that we don't consciously choose.

I mean, at my age, it's a place that we'll grow old in.

I think it's our forever house when we rebuild again.

A place where my family can orbit each other and thrive without colliding with each other.

Where there's room to be together and, frankly, room to be quiet apart.

A house that supports daily life instead of tugging against it.

Not at all.

All around the country, people are rethinking what a home actually means.

And it's not just how strong that shelter is, but how it works for the lives inside it.

Yeah, homes are becoming places where people, I mean, certainly work, right?

It's the world we live in now.

But also at different levels to heal from whatever life throws at us, in our case to age.

I think most importantly to connect.

And that requires different layouts, different systems, and I think different assumptions.

No, let's call it a cultural one.

We're being forced, maybe for the first time in a long time, to ask what we want our homes to do for us as humans.

Yeah, because no matter how advanced the building materials are, a home only succeeds if it supports the lives of the people within.

Houses are not just a shelter machine.

They're supposed to be something that helps us thrive, helps us prosper.

Not just as something that consumes energy, Jen, but something designed to produce it.
