The decorators problems
are not limited to color and
style, but often extend to
calnouflaging architectural
defects.
Because these defects are
usually the result of struc-
tural necessity (beams which
support the roof, for exam
ple) they cannot be simply
eliminated but must be dealt
with realistically, incorpo-
rated into the general
scheme.
Sometimes these show I'D
as the result of tearing down
walls to open up rooms.
Other times they appear in
new houses where the
builder decides it is better
to expose corner beams than
to conceal them and lose a

housewife will shop by video-phone assisted
by electronic-brain machines. She will dial
the number of her supplier who operates a
mammoth warehouse instead of chain of
supermarkets. Her food selections will be
made from images appearing on screen. At
the warehouse her voice will be tape-recorded
as she designates her choices and the amounts
of each item desired. Eectronic brain ma

and will produce typed copies of the Gus

The punch-registered cards will be used
to activate the electronic controls which will
select the desired items from their bins and
bring them by means of conveyor to the
packing tables for check-out. Shopping will
be in reverse. Instead of the housewife going
to market, the market will come to her.
