I have posted a fair bit about ways that 3D printing is being used as a formidable tool in the green economy. I have also (probably more than once) called your attention to 3D printing in construction/housing as a more sustainable/greener/cost effective way to manufacture homes and help address housing issues plaguing so many places.

So….

I thought I would reshare another news item from 3DPrinting.com that highlights exploration in material science, and 3D printing, at MIT. It hits on a couple of the capital R’s, and I can only imagine how creative use of this could make for some really cool, and unique, home designs.

I know, I know, it’s a different spin on Home Parts 3D Printed, but I think these blurbs help underscore the potential impact of 3D printing, whether it is printing actual parts of homes or home parts.
