According to an Electrolux brief, by the year 2050, the Earth will be so overpopulated that individuals will only be able to occupy 35.2 square meters (approximately 380 square feet) of space.

This year’s annual Electrolux Design Lab contest challenged 1,300 industrial designers to invent home appliances for the future.
