This shift highlights the complexities of modern domestic life, with the household landscape now featuring diverse cohabiting units like co-housing and communal living arrangements. These agentic technologies present specific design challenges and opportunities as they become integrated into everyday routines and activities. Our workshop envisions smart homes as dynamic, user-shaped spaces, focusing on the integration of these technologies into daily life. We aim to explore how these technologies transform household dynamics, especially through boundary fluidity, by uniting researchers and practitioners from fields such as design, sociology, and ethnography. Together, we will develop a design framework that responds to the changing nature and boundaries of contemporary living arrangementsenSmart HomeAgentic technologiesDomestic lifeHousehold dynamicsConversational agentsDomestic RobotsVirtual AvatarsHuman-agent interactionSociology of HomeUser-Centered DesignText/Conference Paper10.48340/ecscw2024_ws022510-2591
