How ICON 3D Printed House Zero

- High performance + High end architecture designed by Lake Flato, Built and Fully Owned by ICON who recently raised $185M.
This home near a school and the bustling area of rainy st has an awesome location in Austin, Tx and features some really clever design details. A big one off the bat is you'll notice no holes or cuts exposed for pluming and electrical. This is because all the utilities went in through the slab and roof! The entire home is finished with clear douglas fir for a very high end look. This home is just the first of many in a series where ICON will push the limit of what is possible on their own instead of relying on their customers to find new boundaries and efficiencies for 3D printed construction. The things they learn from these experimental houses will be used for the 100+ homes they hope to build this year many of which will be affordable housing units.

I almost lost my mind printing these walls, but it was so worth!! It has been the honor of my life to be apart of projects like this.
Great work Ed!
I want to hear more from Ed about printing these walls!
*_I'll repeat this here: I have yet to see a 3D printed house made in an area where it's 40 below. I have no faith these houses can work in the cold-there hasn't been any built in these areas, only where it's hot._*
@@RPRsChannel There is a home meant to be printed soon in the far northern regions of Canada and I am going to attempt a MASSIVE road trip to attend. Fingers crossed.
@@RPRsChannel why would you live there :)
"It wasn't fair to expect the customer to innovate on our behalf." That might be the most refreshing thing ive heard from a company rep before.
That house is so different it's hard to imagine what it would be like living in it, but the combination of it being so unique, high end and small is beautiful and I can see why you like it. The color of the wood brings such warmth to the house, and that is my favorite wood color for a house interior.
I watch the channel of Enes Yilmazer and a few others because I like seeing what architects come up with when sometimes the budget is unlimited. The homes are often ridiculous, spaces too large for a person to feel comfortable. Some of the best design ideas come in boats, RVs and tiny homes, because the design has to be optimized for function, including multi-use of space.
That the 3D printing of walls allows different shapes to be made without it costing more is an exciting development though. It's good to see ICON exploring its potential.
Вы молодцы. Соединили печать бетоном и дорогие работы по дереву. Вы изобрели новый стиль. Исполнение этих работ радует. Превосходно.
Love how they show off that it's also a BETTER wall with this project!
This is the first 3-D printed home that I like the texture of the walls - they look like a soft weaving (so I appreciated the way the designer brought in wall hangings and rugs that reflected this!). I have questions - how does one hang a picture in a 3-D printed home? How are the walls repaired from wear and tear over time? Does the texture catch dust? Can you add windows that don't run floor to ceiling? Could you open up the space using half-walls instead of whole walls? I look forward to seeing more of these homes.
🤗🤩🤩WE AGREE WITH YOU JARETT…AND HOPE YOU GET TO STAY THERE…WHILE IT IS A MODEL
WE LOVE ❤️ THE PROGRESS AND FREEDOM 3D PRINTING ALLOWS 😍😍😍
The 3D print quality (the layers) has massively improved since some of icons other places. Well done ICON!
Beautiful home!! Keep up the great work!
Thank you for the video
This is so incredible to hear him talk about this. He loves his work and we do too 👍
Congratulations to Icon and Lake|Flato. This was an exciting project to be involved in. The 3D printed concrete and the high level of design are the stars here but those aren't just glulam beams, those are FraserWood EdgeMatched glulam beams!
Wow this tour with Jason is amazing! Who would not want to meet this guy about housing construction with emerging technologies! Thank you both!!
Beautiful! Wonderful! Inspirational! Absolutely a great beginning!! 👏👏👍😀💜
Great episode, maybe the best one yet.
Beautiful!
Great concept in quick building for remote areas
I have been following your review since ICON's inception and now has really made progress as new technologies come into play. There are still so many people stuck on stick frame building which cannot keep up with the demand or give the performance economically that will be required by the NetZero requirements in the very near future. This has certainly made my decision to build 3-D printed house and not a stick frame. Even back in 2010 we build a Integra Block house which is so tight, solid and sound proof and then build a stick frame home to achieve this performance would be so expensive, high maintenance and not near the life span of 3-D printed houses. Thanks for the update Jarett!
Yes but there's not going to be net zero requirements in the very near future to begin with.
@@stevepasquarella823 Thanks Steve, I am in Canada and the Net Zero is not far away - The Canadian Net-Zero Emissions Accountability Act , which became law on June 29, 2021, enshrines in legislation Canada's commitment to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. In 8 years, by 2030, new houses have to be NetZero ready and compliant by 2050, not to far away. The issue that is not seen today are the standard stick frame built houses that will need to be retrofitted to meet this standard, not so bad if a house is in need of renovation but not good for new house owners in the years coming up before 2030. I do feel a bit for home owners whom may get caught in the middle as the initial price of a home is expensive already and then requirements for NetZero will compound the expense their home. Just my opinion based on what we know today.
It'd be nice if the icon houses were actually affordable... considering it's apparently so much cheaper to build. But of course no, they just keep the extra money after letting us know the house didn't cost as much to build.
@@chrisgerritsen2376 ....Yeah, goddamn Justin Turdo, and be damned if you can't afford it, carbon taxes are bad enough. What about pensioners on fixed incomes? Do we have to give up our homes?
I have been begging my sister in Austin to go SEE THEM FOR ME!
Please, please, please bring these homes to Florida. We need them NOW!
I will build one, we are in Tampa.
I was born n raised and still own a poured concrete house. Thaat house was a WW2 bomb shelter. Thats how sturdy they are. The walls get warm/ cool and stay that way, helping electric costs. These houses are awesome. Theres no danger of landfill wastes - except roof.
Did they ever say a price?
Those layers are lookin' as smooth as cake batter, they must've improved the formula.. and the windows/roofing looks nice, too.
IconBuild is doing amazing things.
Wonderfull :) Truly authentic and true to the process + super nice & cozy with all the rounded spaces / shapes !!! I would apply a protection coating (transaparent or else) on those concrete walls and also investigate maybe crushed bricks + clay / cement for different real textures ;)
Omg!! I am going to have to work for you!! I really LOVE concrete and 3D together!! 😱😱😱
Excellent 👍
Great hob Jarret. Would wish if you cover the structural aspects of this new house and how it was able to satisfy the city building requirements
Job*
I SO want a house like that. I just wish they could make them faster, so that they would be available to regular people like me.
Oh no, it's gonna be a niche thing for rich people too.
What does that mean lol 8 days is not fast enough for regular people like you ? 70 percent faster
@@dianevega7077 I'm sorry that my initial comment wasn't very clear. Yes, an individual house gets completed very quickly, but overall the total number of printed houses being made in the world is tiny.
I would love to live in a 3D printed house, but currently, they simply are not available to "normal" people. The 3D house are either used to create model homes (such as this video), or tiny houses for homeless people. These are all great uses, but not available to me.
I have tried to order a 3D printed house, but the printing companies are just too busy doing their showcase projects at this point. It will be very exciting when there is enough capacity in the industry that a "normal" buyer can just order one.
I wonder if you could put color in the mix? would be a big upgrade to choose the color of the walls too
I was just thinking about that as I was watching the video. Imagine a soft blush/berry color... 😊
I'd imagine that dying the concrete would actually be fairly easy. Just mix whatever dye into the concrete prior to feeding it into the printer. You very well might have some issues with ensuring color matching depending on the color and size of the home though but you could probably mitigate that by just using two different mixers to pull from to ensure that each one gets the right amount of dye and time to mix in. Be like running two different spools of PLA into the same extruder on an Ender 3.
I love it.
Love it - I’m sold
Acoustics?
It'd be interesting to see how you plan the design production process. Thanks for the detailed coverage.
Vidéo intéressante, belle réalisation architecturale.
I am impressed by the definition of the home I just wish that there was more high-low ceiling to floor camera scanning throughout the tour to get a full feel of it. Great job on the house.
Check out the video from Shelby Church about this house - very well made. I think it shows what you want to see.
Gosh, back in the old days, we had to telegraph houses.
Thinking of my favorite Frank LLoyd Wright homes, I definitely shy away from flat roof homes!
From The Caribbean 🇻🇨....I Love.
Genius❤
Do you have to pre-heat the concrete floor to start printing? I can't imagine how big the spatula could be!
Great video!
Fabulous! Lots of potential, but I think we still need to wait until this construction method becomes more widely adopted to really see the cost savings. In all videos I've seen they're still very shy about saying how much it cost to build the home they're featuring.
I started working for icon at the begot this year and I can tell you that they are definitely ramping up so it shouldn’t be long
@@joshualopez4372 Does Icon have a program to help architects to start discussing with their municipalities about implementing onsite digital fabrication? It would seem that will be a major hurdle for getting 3D printing into most people's hometowns, and we all know how long changes and improvement to government law/local building codes takes. Genuinely curious.
@@StephenCoorlas that’s a good question. Let me find out tomorrow morning and I’ll get back to you with the answer
@@joshualopez4372 That would be greatly appreciated!
Other than claiming its cheaper to build and then still having high prices on the homes. So much for that...profit is king, no matter what other spin on affordable housing they are trying to claim.
Very cool
amazing
I would love 3 houses printed in Gonzales Texas, and i will frame the roofs myself. When will this be possible? Thank you
I think it would be a great house. The wave parts should have a lazy Susan closet or pod (self space).
Can a home like this be built n California, especially since California has earthquakes?
What an innovator. I am so impressed by Icon and its exceptional CEO. Well done!
Love it guys.I want to do this in Aus
How much is the house
I’m curious if it’s possible to incorporate more recycled materials that are used in earthships like tires, glass bottles etc.
I've written ICON many times that I want a 3d house as an example for the disadvantaged community where my land is in - foothills of CA near Grass Valley/Nevada City/Marysville. I've never heard back. I would like to start the movement in CA.
Love it! I would also like to see new thinking about colour and non-natural illumination, ie. beige is terrible indoors because many people visually blend into the walls - no foreground/background luma/colour contrast; secondly, overhead lighting is the worst - maybe floor to ceiling light panels like the windows for diffuse side light after dark? (Personal passions; room for improvement :-)
I want this house as my retirement home in VA. Love to get in touch with the Icon team.
What’s the biggest issue that this project had to face? Permitting? Material availability? Engineering?
I would like to know if you have to Kaulk all around windows and doors to avoid bugs or water to get in . And is the concrete shower wall easy to clean or will it get moldy after time ?
This is a magnificent house !
When are they going to post specs and price range.
Sick ass dining area
I was excited about this until I saw what they are selling for in Austin. If we want to move forward as a society, Housing needs to be more than just Affordable.
They aren't even affordable. Especially for the size... unless you are upper upper middle class or higher.
@@orionishi6737 Or Californian, where this is just what a 2 bedroom house costs by default
I love the curvature of the house, but being concrete, does it feel cold inside? Also can the concrete be painted and is it a rough feeling?
What is the cost all up once finished?
Woweee this is Super Incredible...Expands my Vision by far...3D Printing has been a serious plan in my heart inregards to homes...so to one day see this amazingness on line and now also through your Icon Company...it's just greatly making my heart full of additional Joy...Wow. Thank you JASON Thank you ICON....
I have been interested for long time now to buy up a lotta land to build a city / economy and even bigger to be able to supply such a beautiful 3D homes offer to those who have been completely pimped/tricked/syked/deceived/ out of their money through out
their lives and please do add any additional words to chain on to the few I mentioned .....
To be able too provide for the poor that God speaks of in His Word. His Word is one of the most desires in my heart and with this immaculate beautiful way and the manner of Cost efficiency..is beyond a Blessing in it self
All I can say is Mr Jason Ballard and to the Mrs Ballard as well as your whole TEAM...GREAT JOB KEEP IT COMING YOU ALLL SUPER DUPER ROCK!!!!!
I am interested in getting a 3D home built in Michigan, one in Texas ..mansions specially and a whole town in Africa 🌍....other areas we can speak about as soon as we speak in Person...My husband and I will be Superbly excited to meet and greet with such astounding Persons as your selves and ur representative. Thank you all so much for your Post ur Videos...All I can say is Glory be to God in YESHUA'S (Jesus) name Amen.
With all the organic shapes, I have to wonder about how the foundation/footer is made to accommodate those shapes without costly material waste?
My concern would be -- IF any Cement Wall Damage occurred (Exterior or Interior Wall) -- HOW would any consistent (undetectable) Repairs be made after the Initial Constructions? i can't imagine that the same Automated 3D Process could be utilized 5 - 10 - 15 years down-the-road (or even once the Roof is Installed).
I wonder if at the windows and doors a robot could cut a straight line into the beads so that you can install a window in a straight square opening? Where they have the metal edge for the shower it seems to make sense to do a simple clean vertical cut and stick a piece of metal in there with minimal caulking (potentially in the inseam) to help with the install process. If you did that on both sides you wouldnt have to worry about thermal bridging and if by robot then it could be really precise. Just a thought, it seems that the interface of the vertical connections is the weakest point but this idea could be an option to solve that. I'd be interested to see if frost protected shallow slabs could be used and even basement printing as well. Here is cold canada we typically have basements since we have to be so deep below the frost line.
Can you Sand the exterior walls to remove the rugged aspect and perform painting finishes !!
What's the volumetric difference of material of the straight wall design vs the curved, like on that facade? I love the look, but you say cost is the same. But there is a difference between distance in a straight line vs a wavey line.
I really want one. Will check their website
At 0:35 there is a crack on the wall. These types of cracks usually develops where reinforcing element are missing.
Good spotting!!
This dude rocks. He will be or already is a millionaire.
How do you get financing? What did it take to get permits?
can you 3d print driveways and pathways as well as retaining and garden walls?
Id be really interested to understand how the elec, plumbing and mechanical systems are integrated. All i caught was that services are run in the slab and in the roof. What about wall mounted power outlets and switches?
Me too. Icon is really protective about sharing the trials, research and pitfalls of the technology. Very selective about how they market themselves, which I suppose is probably best for an innovative fabrication technology that is about to uproot conventional construction methods. Although I also wish there was more transparency into the design process with the architects, since I would like to implement this fabrication technique with some of my clients.
Looks like most outlets and switches are in the interior timber construction walls, where it wouldn't be an issue. Kind of a limitation for sure, but makes sense.
Nothing wrong with that all being surface mounted, so if there ever is a problem, you could fix it without tearing a wall apart and rebuilding. Who ever came up with the idea of hiding all that behind walls? A woman, probably, plus I like the industrial/loft look. Also, I hate bending over, so have all the power taps/sockets at waist height or higher, instant partial child proofing since most toddlers can't reach that high.
@@LoneBrowncoat why did you have to bring up women? lol
Which price of this house?
almost awesome
What would it do to (spray) paint the walls with mirror paint? Or some accents?
are the different layers mechanically or chemically bonded? the material cures before the nozzle arrives back at that same spot, so its just the weight of the material that keeps it together?
when can we commission a residential house to be built?
I think i just solve walls issue but not plumbing and electric but it is really great progress but not much financial feasible but looking like a good future.
I'm wondering if the printing media could be tinted. I'm not too keen on the coldness of the color.
Absolutely can
Can the walls be plastered smooth inside?
Can a color pigment be used when 3D printing?
OMG 😍 it's great work, for long time waiting for real 3D home. I don't have a home. We really want a 3D home with some cool ideas 💡. Me and husband is so creative but we are not engineers 🤣🤣😆. How to contact you guys. Please
weird question. How did your cell reception operate during this tour? Did you have any degradation in cellphone/internet signal?
They put effort into making sure it was good
@@automateconstruction I saw the networking boosters around but did you normal provider signal degrade at all without being logged into them( it appeared to be a ubiquiti system)? Being the roof wasn't printed there may have not been much of an issue but I could see those walls creating a signal loss without the networking additions like most houses don't have. Smart features or networking functions can mitigate it, but looking at it from a low cost housing solution is there an introduction of other products that current housing don't require for it to function well?
How approx for house like this sample, if ground already paid ???
Thx
$400-500 per sq foot.... without land costs
I saw this company on 60 minutes and am very intrigued by these houses. I also just read an article online regarding another home in Texas that was built with concrete designed with deep grooves to help dissipate heat so that no Air Conditioning is required, even in the triple digit temperatures of Texas. I can't hep but wonder if with the method that the icon houses are built that automatically creates grooves between every layer if this design doesn't provide similar benefits for heat dissipation? Has Icon tested their buildings "R Factor"? I would love to know what this is prior to the "Trades" installing insulation, as I did not hear anything about the inherit "R Factor" of their buildings yet. I would assume the "R Factor" has to be pretty decent with their design and could be significantly higher with double walls where there is an additional air gap between the inner and outer wall. Either way it has to have a built-in value for saving energy which could be ridiculously increased with the proper insulation material, which makes me wonder if Icon has researched the best material/option for insulating their buildings, especial when they are expecting to be building on the moon...
Where are you printing the next house, and when are you going to print it?
how does a 'new' construction method like this satisfy housing codes that are based on completely different construction methods but different materials as well?
I build for a living, and I'm still not seeing how this is cheaper than building out of 2x6..... or 2x4 for that matter....with less mechanical issues in fitting it out...
What does all that pour-as cement look like when it gets dirty ?
I’m curious as to how well these structures hold up to hurricanes....?
Can they do hemp concrete?
A house in the shape of a sphere should be printed
How do they hold up in a earthquake?
Wow really Neat design features Sign me up!!!
How much did the home cost in total?
We won't get to know that because then we will think they are selling them for too much.
They were listing over $400,000!
whats the material used?
Washer | Dryer | Closet Space | Electrical set-up? --- Thanks
Jarret can i have the email about this presentation? i wante meke contact
The walls must scatter sound better than normal houses.
How much does it cost ?
I'm so glad they've changed their minds about their projects. When they released their first video about their village being built in South America, I said OK GREAT! How about the country HOSTING YOU? They said they were doing "off world projects now"..... Even THEN we need affordable housing NOW... HERE ON PLANET EARTH! I love these 3D printed houses. Anybody that bought property in the late 80's that was probably the last time housing was even affordable.
Anything after THAT, you're talking in the millions, as if THAT'S affordable or even REASONABLE.
3D makes all that problem GO AWAY, just like cell phones did to MA BELL with the outrageous monthly prices....
they should have used a wide angle lens to show more of the house.
There’s a full tour I posted with Jason a week ago
How much did this cost?
