Sure it’s fun to use 3D printers to make small tool pieces,
toys, robots and other gadgets. But have you thought that one
day a machine that traces its lineage to an office appliance
would ultimately print the building you work in? Dutch architect
Janjaap Ruijssenaars has designed a one-piece building which
will be built with a 3D printer. Ruijssenaars, from the Universe
Architecture in Amsterdam, is working to with mathematician and
artist Rinus Roelofs on the project. They aim to have the
building called Landscape House, printed by 2014, according to

building will be printed in pieces as large as 6x9 metres using
a massive 3D printer called by D-Shape, which was designed by
Italian inventor Enrico Dini, chairman of the United Kingdom-
based firm Monolite UK Ltd. Video: 3D printers enter the
