While you might be familiar with 3D-printing being used to render smaller-sized models or prototypes, did you realise the technology can also be used to print far larger objects? In Belgium, Europe’s largest ever 3D-printed home, a two story structure with two living rooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and foyer, has recently been completed by the Belgian sustainable construction company Kamp C, hugely advancing the science of 3D-printed housing. After this project, the partners hope to raise interest in the building industry about the use of 3D concrete printing as a building technique.
