In the surrounding area, housing development using 3D printing technology has entered the practical stage, and several residential communities have been born with different uses and price ranges.
Startups from Austin at the heart of constructionIconWe are building houses using 3D printers developed by the company.
In this article, we will introduce you to three of icon's high-profile 3D printer residential communities.

Located in Georgetown, north of Austin, Wolf Ranch is a 3D-printed homeLargest ceding community in the countryproduced by the kidneys.
The modern look and durability of the house is centered on a flat with a total floor area of about 140-200 m ². The general layout is 3 or 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and the price range is approx.Around $450,000 to $600,000This price range is somewhat more expensive than a new home in a traditional neighborhood with the same gross floor area.
Designed as a suburban family home, it is characterized by a shortening of construction period and uniform quality, while having the same habitability as a general detached house.

In the Mueller neighborhood near downtown Austin, 12 3D-printed homes are in the final stages of construction.
The total floor area is about 90-130 m ², and it is compact with a maximum of 3 bedrooms, but the lowest price isFrom $360,000, and it has earned a high reputation as an example of responding to housing supply challenges in urban areas.

Icon is also building a 3D-printed home in the Wimberley neighborhood south of Austin.
Using icon's 3D printer-robot building technology, the traditional construction method requires only a few months of wall construction.2-4 Weeks. The human builder will then take over the work.
A 3D printed housing model that reduces construction time and costs is coming to life here in Austin, Texas.
