184 Days of the 1962 Seattle World's Fair - Day 35: Washington State Coliseum World of Tomorrow

The World of Tomorrow: Housed in the Washington State Coliseum, this exhibit gives a glimpse of what the future might hold. Up to 100 visitors could ride the Bubbleator (a large, glass, globe) up into a honeycomb of cubes that foretold the future. The House of Tomorrow might include disposable dishes, automatic windows, and changeable color schemes. Gyrocopters might zip and whiz you to the Office of Tomorrow, which might have miniature micro-mail, machines to transmit correspondence, and machines that communicated with each other. You might even have a 24-hour workweek, with an astronomical salary of $12,000 a year!

Thanks to History Link for the description.
