There is a lot of dislike here about even the concept, but I think it may revolutionize construction. The amount of customization would be astonishing.

I think it is something to watch. It is in its infancy. I am an avid 3d printer, and I see a lot of potential.

I think many people see this the same way many people saw a Wright Brothers flyer back in 1905, and it was impossible for them to imagine a Boeing 747.

Me too. And you're right. 3d printed homes are in there infancy. We've not hit on the right materials just yet, IMO.

There's no reason the material used shouldn't provide insulation, non-cracking characteristics, and great strength. 3 printed structures should be the safest of all structures.

And we seriously do need to get away from the boxed, poverty look to free-form structures able to last centuries that take advantage of earth's thermal resource and blend in with nature.
