The evolution of the New Zealand state house

Housing New Zealand

The state houses of the 1930s and 40s are part of the fabric of New Zealand society. Hundreds of thousands of us have lived in one, or next to one. They have a reputation for having “good bones” and, today, they’re often seen as tidy, blank canvases for home buyers to breathe new life into.

The state houses of the 1930s and 40s are part of the fabric of New Zealand society. Hundreds of thousands of us have lived in one, or next to one. They have a reputation for having “good bones” and, today, they’re often seen as tidy, blank canvases for home buyers to breathe new life into.

Fast-forward 80 years, and Housing New Zealand is still building high-quality, state-of-the-art homes that are winning awards and setting a new standard for state housing.

Take a journey through the evolution of the state house, from its humble beginnings to the warm, healthy, modern homes we’re building today.

Jobs In The Next 10-20 Years From Now

Matt from Henderson

Hi Everyone, Matt here. I do not know if anyone is going to say this but I will. I am going to say that a majority of the jobs and work places will be automated or taken over by robots in years ahead. I am saying this because of what the uncertainty of what is happening around the world to do … View moreHi Everyone, Matt here. I do not know if anyone is going to say this but I will. I am going to say that a majority of the jobs and work places will be automated or taken over by robots in years ahead. I am saying this because of what the uncertainty of what is happening around the world to do with technology. We think Ipads, Iphones, etc we have now just the thing. Wait in years to come. This is not just a matter of how but when. Yes, I have to say that no one's job will be safe in years to come. Every job you go to now, well I believe, when you go visit a job to see if anything is available, the person you speak to either the employee or manager to see if any jobs are available, their response will be is "Oh you will have to apply online, to see if anything is available". I'm not saying that 'all' workplace people would say this but I'd say a majority would.

Am I saying this is to scare anyone out of their jobs? No, but need to be aware of what work could like in these coming years. Am I saying this because of what I am saying? No, if no one wants to believe or read what I have said, search for yourselves online and do your own research to see what your job could be like or if it is still around in the near future.

I am sure if technology takes over the workplace I am sure that there will replacement jobs such as being a AI technician or repairer. I wonder what our next generation of our children are going to do for work when AI or technology take over the job market.

We do need to get our heads around this sooner rather than later because we just don't know what will happen around the corner.

Something for all of us to seriously think about.

Matt
