This huge 3D home builder will create the entire building, from the foundation, floor, walls, ceiling and even plumbing and more advanced stuff such as electrical wiring! At beginning, I thought it could only build the main block of the building, but apparently this 3D printer from ContourCrafting is far more crafted than that! It would build the house in such a way that you’d only need to put the windows and the doors in the cutouts that have been left by the huge construction robot.
Maybe you wouldn’t like living in such a home built by a gigantic 3D printer, but think about almost 1 billion people that literally don’t have a stable shelter. Do you think they’ll think twice before moving in? This is the immediate and most urgent use for 3D printed home, but I can imagine that for the rest of us, or those that have money, being able to print your own house in less than one day would be really something.
