There\u2019s something super exciting about the future of architecture.<\/p>\n

Architecture has always been dependent on structural questions: to build a living room with large windows, you will need a system to hold those heavy glass panes, probably a load-bearing wall nearby, etc.<\/p>\n

Whatever you think about in terms of architecture and interior design will be controlled and given to you by the structural quality of the building.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t matter if it\u2019s a 1956 rare, custom, complex mid-century home in the desert or a produced en masse<\/em> apartment building from 2007 in Florida. Same structural questions that will answer your living questions, always. We are limited by the frame.<\/p>\n

Until now!!!<\/p>\n

3D printing means that we do not<\/em> care about structure anymore. Because everything is made through a printing process, everything stands on its own, like a shell. No more calculations to know if that steel frame can hold and support this and that. We print, y\u2019all! It\u2019ll hold and support by default.<\/p>\n

How much it liberates our minds, it\u2019s pure magic. I was re-reading the famous Case Study Houses<\/a> book and most of the challenges were about structure and cost. Those architects were structure\u2019s bitches. <\/p>\n

Not anymore!!!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the end of math: there are other calculations and numbers to take care of with 3D printing, but the all \u201cis it possible to..?\u201d<\/em> crucial question doesn\u2019t exist anymore.<\/p>\n

It is so freeing, I cannot.<\/p>\n

I will 3D-print my custom house. It will probably be concrete (or maybe rammed earth if possible) and hemp, two natural and extremely strong materials. Of course, that also means near zero-waste construction and pre-build homes, which means assembled in a matter of weeks.<\/p>\n
