The expanding role of data, algorithms, robotics, and artificial intelligence is altering the physical surroundings in which we live as well.

In the exhibition Private_Eye_Butler_Spy, Arcam examines how the built environment in and around our homes is changing as a result of increasing technologization and digitization.

How do smart systems in the domestic sphere develop, and what impact does this have on the design of homes? Will household robots fully become residents, and does this bring new design challenges with it? How does the tendency to always be connected online affect our way of life, and what impact does this have on the architecture of our living environment? How might the conceptual relationship that people have with their surroundings change? Will a smart home become a living entity that you can regard as a friend, spy, fitness coach, psychiatrist, or butler? How does the physical and material impact of digital networks manifest in our immediate living environment?
