Imagine you could program and control your home with a palm-sized remote. Make any room an entertainment room, with broadband home video or music on demand. Brighten lights and close blinds, according to the time of day. Keep each room the perfect temperature -- and at peak energy-efficiency. Turn on the dishwasher while in bed. Even lock and secure your home for the night, without getting up from the couch.
This home isn't science fiction. It's the NextGen Demonstration Home - showcasing modern comfort, connectivity, and cutting-edge construction practices. Built on location at Las Vegas' Stardust Hotel and Casino, you can see this "smart home" firsthand from now until March 2003.
Among the home's wired and energy-optimizing features is metal roofing, chosen for its superior energy efficiency, environmental benefits, great looks and durable longevity. The Metal Roofing Alliance is proud to contribute metal roofing to the home of the future ... and the home of today.
