"In 1952, Popular Mechanics magazine ran an article about science fiction author Robert Heinlein’s then-new 1,150-square-foot minimalist home. Titled “A House To Make Life Easy,” the article written by Thomas E. Stimson, Jr., explores the “house that’s called extreme today but may become conventional before the 20th century has run its course.” More than half a century later, it’s interesting to look back on this article and see which of the futuristic ideas caught on and which ones didn’t."

Thanks for this, Steven. I covet Mr. Heinein's divan with the convenient (and fancy!) cupboard.
