Huis van de Toekomst

Huis van de Toekomst is an experimental architectural project in Rosmalen that showcased futuristic living concepts through its innovative design and integrated systems. The building contained rooms equipped with automated controls and technological features that demonstrated how homes might function in coming decades.

The building opened in 1989 and operated as a demonstration center for advanced home technologies until 1999. It was created as a forward-thinking effort to show people how technology might transform daily life in houses.

The structure served as an educational platform where visitors learned about technological integration in residential spaces through interactive demonstrations and guided tours.

The building sits along the A59 highway between Den Bosch and Nijmegen and now serves as part of a larger visitor facility. You can walk through the historical rooms and learn how automation technologies were imagined to work in homes decades ago.

The bathroom featured a voice-controlled glass roof that opened and closed by voice command. The kitchen used computer-guided systems to provide cooking instructions in real time.
