Video Description

3D printed homes are coming to the United States. Lennar, a major home builder, partnered with the technology firm Icon to deliver 100 homes to the greater Austin, Texas area. It was an experiment that could potentially reduce production cycles and labor costs for home builders. The homes stand one story tall and are wind, fire and mold-resistant. The technique could revolutionize construction in markets that allow innovative approaches to building.
