Kelly, James Patrick. "Bernardo's House." Novella. Kindle: Future Fiction - Mincione Edizioni, 2014.
From Fantastic Fiction website,
A domotic story [i.e., one about IT in the home (Latin domus)],[1] a conscious living house who speaks and shows, through the objects that fill her, the need to be inhabited, to be eternally possessed by a tenant.
Get ready for an unusual visit to "Bernardo's House", where the topic of home automation is inseparably interwoven with Artificial Intelligence: what would happen if such a House would lose her "beloved tenant", and if in his place - with a totally unexpected visit - came a strange figure? Unknown to the House, which will question each and every certainty of her life.[2]
Note AI motif; cf. and contrast "There Will Come Soft Rains," the Dean R. Koontz novel Demon Seed, andDEMON SEED (film) — and the "House of Whacks" episode of The Simpsons.
