Printed Climate-Proof

3D-printed housing prioritizes protection from the elements

Trend - As climate change becomes an important factor in how new homes around the world are built, 3D-printed housing is making the process of designing natural disaster-proof housing easier. These homes offer sustainable and protective construction that avoids structural issues in the case of extreme weather.

Insight - As consumers become increasingly concerned about how current and impending weather changes will impact their lives, more are turning to longer term investments and choices that guarantee them some level of protection when it comes to the consequences of climate change. These changes can exist in everything from housing to where people choose to live.
Workshop Question - How is your brand prioritizing long-term sustainability and protection for customers?
Trend Themes
1. Climate-proof - The trend towards climate-proof housing is spurring the development of 3D-printed housing construction.
2. Sustainable 3D Printing - With 3D printing as a solution with a low embodied carbon impact, sustainable 3D-printed habitats are becoming increasingly common.
3. Self-sufficient Cities - Designing sustainable and self-sufficient cities with solutions for pandemics and natural disasters is a growing trend.
Industry Implications
1. Architecture - 3D printing technology is revolutionizing the way architects design and build sustainable and climate-proof structures.
2. Construction - The application of 3D printing in construction has the potential to reduce average construction time, material waste, and overall costs.
3. Real Estate - As consumers become more concerned about climate change and natural disasters, there is an opportunity to create innovative housing solutions that guarantee them protection in different environments.
