> VR? Probably not.

You are correct. AR (augmented reality) is the future, and it's going to be huge. Look at microsoft's hololens, and use your imagination as to what magic leap is cooking up. Once the hardware is there, it'll be like the second coming of the iphone.

I was thinking about this yesterday; I had air-conditioning installed and the guys spent an hour measuring and marking the walls before deciding where to mount the unit and drill holes. I kept thinking "get a HoloLens, take a picture of the back of the unit, look at the wall and pin the picture where you want, start drilling".

I think interior design will change a lot in the next ten years.
