These houses can be 3D printed in just 24 hours, for less than $4000

In a groundbreaking collaboration, construction tech company ICON and nonprofit New Story have developed a method to 3D-print homes in just 12 to 24 hours at a cost of approximately $4,000. Utilizing the Vulcan printer, these 650-square-foot homes are constructed with a specialized cement mixture, o

A 3D printed house, in just 24 hours and for less than $4000, this is the project of the non-profit organization New Story! These houses are designed to help vulnerable populations, and fight housing problems in disadvantaged areas.

By partnering with the manufacturer ICON, they imagined Vulcan, a giant 3D printer capable of printing a complete house in record time and for a very low price. The first homes were printed in Austin, Texas, but the organization plans to print its homes in El Salvador in the coming months. An excellent project!
