ICON is a construction technologies company based in Austin, Texas. With the help of proprietary 3D printing robotics, software and advanced materials, ICON mainly focuses on solving problems in the construction industry, by making it more cost-effective, among other things. The…

In Belgium, a two-storey house has just been erected thanks to additive manufacturing: using the concrete 3D printer BOD2, developed by COBOD, the Kamp C company was able to construct a 90 square meter structure in only three weeks, and…

The use of concrete in 3D printing is revolutionizing the construction industry. From houses to pedestrian bridges, additive manufacturing provides a great deal of design freedom that goes beyond the limits of the imaginable. In fact, it may well be…

Additive manufacturing is starting to play a very important role in the construction industry. Concrete 3D printing keeps gaining more and more popularity among architects and construction firms for two main reasons – it is cheaper and faster than the…

3D construction printing (3DCP) refers to various technologies that use additive manufacturing as a core method to fabricate buildings or construction components. We have already written about several 3D printed bridges and the 3D printed floating house project. The most…

It’s already unusual to live in a house that floats, so imagine how it would be if it were 3D printed. This is the new concept developed in the Czech Republic: called Prvok, this small structure will not only have…

As home 3D printing becomes a reality with the booming construction market, we wanted to focus on the manufacturers of 3D printers that make this great innovation possible. There are many different types of construction 3D printers, from polar machines…

Architecture is always evolving as the years go by. In fact, increasingly, 3D printing technologies are providing the tools to imagine new projects for this sector. In Saudi Arabia, two architectural design studios, Precht and Mamou-Mani Architects have constructed a…

A number of designers and architects have been exploring 3D printing technologies in order to experiment with materials and structures. Yet another example is AIRLAB’s mesh-covered pavilion made from 3D printed steel nodes at Singapore’s Garden by the Bay. The…

Here’s a piece of news that should make all table tennis fans salivate: Cypriot designer Stelio Mousarris has designed a 3D printed ping-pong table or more precisely a table whose structure and net have been created by metal additive manufacturing…

We previously told you about New Story and ICON’s mission to create the world’s first 3D printed community as a means to combat homelessness. At the time, the exact location of the project had not been revealed. The project is…

The 3D printer manufacturer WASP, has partnered with Mario Cucinella Architects to embark on an innovative model of a 3D printed house, called TECLA. TECLA is a new circular housing model, created using entirely reusable, recyclable materials taken from the…
