Aside from "Historic" buildings, all structures are built with varying degrees of SmartHouse technology.
When the House is dormant, it looks rather ordinary, save for the small holo-boards in each room. However, when active. The House is capable to executing all household tasks. Panels that when closed are virtually invisible, open up and release many arms and gadgets that clean and take care of pets, and the fancier ones are capable of preparing complex and delightful meals for the family. Though many of the earlier cooking models have been recalled due to their tendency to start kitchen fires. SmartHouses also work as personal secretaries and alarm/surveillance systems. All include parental settings which can inhibit dangerous behavior such as a toddler touching/turning on a stove to keeping adolescents from well...doing what adolescents do. The SmartHouse is also self-diagnosing and is able to instill simple repairs on itself, as well as execute simple first-aid to humans. There have been many cases when the house saves it's occupant by preforming CPR until help arrives.
One can communicate with their house through many means, the most popular is through their BlueEye and voice commands, but the wall holo-boards prove useful from time to time to issue commands.
RoboLabor:
Highly skilled jobs are still done by humans, but often have a RoboLabor unit as an assistant. These units vary in size and are made entirely of plastics, making them stronger and lighter than metals. They are generally boxy looking and in no way resemble a human. They preform simple tasks and unskilled labor. They're rather glitchy and can be a pain to work with, so human unskilled labor still exists in a limited quantity. RoboUnits work at full capacity for about 4 years, and then are often recycled. Sometimes people sell the old units, but it is often not worth it (Think sleezy used car dealer).
