There was one Asimov novel (The naked sun) which was a detective story based on a planet where the wealthy had embraced distance as a status symbol associated with large properties (Texas ranch style), living far from each other, socializing via hologram projection, and abhorring physical contact.
There was a murder, which was inconceivable, as it appeared to involve direct personal physical violence.
This was in complete contrast to Earth, where everyone lived in domed or underground cities, and never ventured outside, eventually reaching the stage where the entire population were agoraphobic.
