The wave walls are more stable than traditional walls. Very sensible and practical design.

Thomas Jefferson built serpentine walls back in the 1700s that still stand today.

“hands-free technology”

This is BS.

It took several people to set up the 3D printer. To set up the scaffolding. To pour the concrete floor. To pour the concrete second floor. To assemble the membrane roof.

I have been watching several of these 3D printed housing projects over the last few years. The only thing they save is the wall framing and sheathing. You have to still frame out the window and door openings with wood. You have to change the way electricity and plumbing are put into the walls.

I just do not see how it is a benefit once you have to retrofit things later on. Plus, do you want the inside walls of your house to lock like a pair of corduroy pants from the 1960s?

They used to build round barns so the devil couldn’t hide in a corner...but I think we’re beyond that.

Try getting anything nonstandard approved by your local zoning board. Good luck.

I assumed the pieces were printed at a factory and assembled on site. WRONG.
