University of Maine's BioHome3D House 3D Printed with MasterPrint®

"Researchers at the University of Maine on Monday unveiled what they say is a promising, climate-friendly response to the nation's affordable housing crisis: the world's first, bio-based 3D printed home.

The entire home was printed using a material known as wood flour, the residuals left over from sawmills, mixed with a binder made from corn. The next step is to scale up the printing process.
