Baseboards and trim with electrical wires built right into them. Then if you needed to add some surround sound to a room or add an extra outlet or whatever it's all right there in the baseboard and you don't have to rip your walls up to get to the electric.
At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas a couple years ago, they showcased flat electrical wiring that can easily be incorporated into construction materials. Combine this technology with "wireless charging" that allows electricity to flow with a wired connection, and you could "plug in" everything in your house without a single plug! Just lace the walls with the flat electrical wires every 2-3 feet, then all your lamps, entertainment equipment, small kitchen appliances, radios, etc. could wirelessly pull electricity from the walls!
