Smart Home: Green + Wired
(May 2008 Debut)
The museum's demonstration home shows the latest in architecture, home design, and technology, making this 2,500 square-foot space energy efficient and fully automated. Bob worked as the museum's editorial consultant, helping to choose the automation systems, energy technologies, consumer electronics products, and technology services that went into the green home. The home was built on museum grounds, and the exhibit runs from May through January 2009.
