Can 3D-printed homes solve the housing crisis—or are they overhyped? Discover why groundbreaking projects failed, the engineering challenges, regulatory road...
The industry as a whole still has some kinks to work out.
What I was thinking about back then was different. I understand what you mean with modular homes, but the idea was more like something you would see in a space show. Hallways with panels like 2x2’ that lock together to form the surface, structure, insulation, electrical and plumbing, with e-ink like material on the people facing side to change the look. Similar idea to the modular home concept, just on a much smaller scale, with extra bells and whistles.
I’m not really sure how else to describe it honestly.
This is basically how new houses are built. Assembled on site from pre fab components.
