El Cosmico's current glamping accommodations are sprawled across a 21-acre plot of land.When Icon begins its work on the property, these accommodations will be moved to a 65-acre extension where the new hotel "rooms" and facilities will be printed …… while the previous 21 acres will be populated by approximately 30 to 50 new printed affordable houses spanning up to 2,200 square-feet, Jason Ballard, the CEO and cofounder of Icon, told Insider.
""We think entirely new [designs] are enabled by 3D printing," Ballard said. "I think this project is going to be a great example of that."This diverse project will be Icon's first time building a pool, spa, and the property's list of communal facilities. The latter will include structures like a shower house, restaurant, and event space.These printers will then excrete its proprietary "high strength" concrete, known as "lavacrete.
Affordable homes of the future, and the future is now
