We are entering a new era in architecture — where design is data , structure is code , and form follows fabrication .3D printing is not...

The five-story tower’s defining feature is its 32 unique, load-bearing 3D-printed concrete columns.

3D printing in construction is no longer futuristic—it’s a rapidly maturing solution shaping the future of housing and infrastructure.

Peri 3D, the German company recently responsible for the EU’s first 3D printed social housing design, is working on a new project for Starbucks in Brownsville, Texas.

With climate change, urbanisation and rapid population growth, the issue of sustainable and environmentally friendly construction is becoming particularly acute.

THREE families today became the first in Ireland to move into 3D printed homes. The two-storey, three-bedroom terraced gaffs in Dundalk, Co Louth, were built using automated concrete printing technology.

3D printing makes it easy to create and refine complex forms of modern architecture as visual models before construction begins.

The construction sector is one of the largest contributors to global greenhouse gas emissions.

German company PERI 3D Construction is collaborating with construction printer manufacturer COBOD on what the team describes as the “first 3D printed social housing apartment building in Germany and Europe.” 

As 3D printing becomes more integrated into the construction industry, it's not just the technologies that change — entire professions, skills, and workforce structures are being reshaped.

Robot-built houses and small buildings are struggling to become more widely available, not least because they are still more expensive than conventional buildings. But new technologies are opening up new prospects.
