Innovation
Living Tomorrow brings us future concepts
Living Tomorrow is an innovation platform which realizes future concepts. They open a new building on the 1st of March 2007 in Vilvoorde Belgium.
So take a look when you are in the neighbourhood. In Vilvoorde the focus on the theme Home, Office and creative industry of the future. During my lectures about the future I talk a lot about transreality. It is the fusion of the physical world with the virtual world. As one of the examples I use the interactive mirror. How this works you see in the clip of Living Tomorrow. Soon I will do some extra post about transreality.

I enjoyed a visit around Living Tomorrow in Amsterdam, though it must be very difficult to keep the exhibitions up to date. I remember that Chriet Titular also had a house of tomorrow and when I went round they had older versions of devices I had already purchased. It would be great if visitors could vote for what they thought was the best idea, or vote as they went along using a mobile. I recall seeing an intelligent washing machine that only used enough soap to do the right job. How come this hasn’t flooded the market? Does the manufacturer not get any feedback? The future is co-creation, so where can consumers contribute. Great things are not invented anymore by having guys in white coats play with things in secret labs. Its not clear from the websites how different the new Living tomorrow place is compared to Amsterdam. It is the Disneyland concept (seen one, seen them all?) Curious——-

@Jonathan, 80 percent of the technologies which are showed at Living Tomorrow are ready for the market. Just 20 percent are just concepts. This is, for I know, not the main goal of Living Tomorrow. I mean to collect opinions about products for consumers. Maybe a good future service for Living Tomorrow, but I think that when products are shown in Living Tomorrow it is already to late for co-creation. Consumers must be at the beginning of innovation be heard. What do you think. About your question if the Living Tomorrow in Vilvoorde Belgium is different like the other for example Amsterdam. Sorry but I don’t know. Do they have the same themes like in Amsterdam? If anyone knwos please help us out with this. And Jonathan, if you have visited Living Tomorrow in Vilvoorde please let us know if you liked it.
