Researchers at the University of Maine in the United States have succeeded in creating the first 3D-printed house made entirely of bio-based materials, derived from renewable organic matter.
Usually, 3D-printed buildings are mainly made from concrete or clay, but the BioHome3D breaks the mould.The final house actually comprises four modules built separately and then assembled in just a few hours.
