China just 3D-printed an entire mansion. Here’s what it looks like

A Chinese construction company last weekend unveiled its two largest 3D-printed buildings to date. One is a grand-looking, three-story mansion (well, McMansion), and the other is a more utilitarian five-story apartment block. Both are made entirely by 3D printers creating layers of materials that form walls and roofs.

The giant 3D-printed homes are made by Winsun, the same company that cranked out basic one-story homes last year. This latest project is a proof-of-concept for now, with both the villa and the apartment block (which are undecorated inside) positioned side-by-side in an expo area, according to photos on Chinese sites such Caixin and Netease News.

Here’s the 3D-printed mansion, which covers an area of 1,100 square meters (11,840 square feet):

And here’s the much less visually appealing 3D-printed tower block: The latest 3D-printed homes are in Suzhou in eastern China, where Winsun is based. The partially finished wall section pictured below shows how the firm’s giant 3D printer creates layers of 3D-printed concrete that is later formed into a section of wall. These pre-fabricated elements are then put into place to build the entire structure.
