Life in the future can be easy and diversified. You can establish your own home just like building blocks, have a robotic kitchen cook delicious dishes catering to your tastes and move your furniture by touching a button.

As space becomes more precious in big cities, you can stay in a functional collective house and have nibble on vegetables from a greenhouse on the rooftop.

All these scenarios can be found in the seven-episode documentary Future Home, the stories about life and technology of dozens of young talented people from 16 cities in seven countries such as the United States, the Netherlands and Iceland.

"Settling down in one place won't be common in the future, when youngsters are more likely to live a nomadic way of life. They are looking at the world more differently than before," says Liu Yang, producer of the documentary.

"Our life has been pervaded by advanced technology, but the basic needs of human beings such as making friends and affection between blood relations will never change."

Whaley Technology Co Ltd and youth culture media Vice China coproduced the documentary to delve into the trends of the youngsters' lifestyles in the future.

Each episode has attracted more than 3 million hits on average after release on Chinese video sites in early May, with a weekly update.

Plans are to broadcast the documentary on Chinese satellite TV channels and overseas websites as well.

In October, the international team set off for a 45-day trip to seven countries for filming.
