Building a house is a complex process; from architectural planning to the construction process itself, getting to the final result can take months and even years. Well, here’s some great news for those who are in a hurry. This company in San Francisco built a house in just 24 hours.
While it’s true that the construction isn’t exactly a penthouse, the fact that a 3D printer did it in such a short time for just $11,000 is simply amazing. Thanks to this record, Apis Cor became the first company to ever design a 3D printer that can print buildings on-site.
The interior of the building is 400 square feet large and it is located in Russia. The main material used to build it is a concrete mixture.
The windows, doors and furniture were later added, as well as the colorful exterior painting.
Just like any other (…)
Just like any other house, this one has a living room, kitchen, bathroom and a hallway.
The exact cost of the house (furniture and exterior finishing included) is $10,134. Judging by recent studies, the building can last up to 175 years!
Founder Nikita Chen-yun-tai declared:
“We want to change public views that construction can’t be fast, eco-friendly, efficient and reliable at the same time. Our goal is to become the biggest international construction company to solve problems of accommodation around the globe.”
This is a great opportunity for companies all around the world to create and deliver new homes to the refugees and homeless.
