In 1967, the folks at Philco-Ford [!] produced a film titled '1999 A.D.' to mark the company's 75th anniversary and provide a sneak peek at domestic life in the distant days ahead. [Appending the unnecessary anno domini makes it sound even more futuristic, I guess.] You'll find push-buttons and video screens galore; rooms of then-shocking, now-iconic modern furniture; and a mildly dysfunctional family trying to have lunch.
