# This Home Was 3D Printed in Only 24 Hours and for Just $10,000

3D printing is incorporating itself into our [clothes](<https://futurism.com/category/robots-and-machines>), our [medicine](<https://futurism.com/neoscope/3-3d-printed-titanium-vertebrae-restore-womans-damaged-spine>), and, now, even our homes. [Apis Cor.](<http://apis-cor.com/en/>), a company dedicated to building the world with printing has built its first ever 3D-printed home in Stupino town, a region near Moscow, Russia.

Construction took only 24 freezing hours during December, 2016, through temperatures of -35°C (-31°F). The home, equipped with a living room, kitchen, bathroom, and a hallway, was made on-site, a world's [first for 3D-printed building constructed in that amount of time](<https://www.cnet.com/news/worlds-first-3d-printed-apartment-building-constructed-in-china/>).

The total cost of construction for the [38-square-meter (409-square-foot](<http://apis-cor.com/en/about/news/first-house>)[) home was $10,134](<http://apis-cor.com/en/about/news/first-house>) including the expenses of work, materials for the construction, and furnishing. That's $275 per square meter, but the company is confident that a square house with a simpler design and averagely priced material would cost only $223 per square meter.

The construction of the home was made possible by a mobile 3D printer. Once the mobile printer had completed the walls, it was removed with a crane manipulator to allow manual workers to come in and finish the job.

Apis Cor asserts that its method of 3D printing homes cuts [70% of costs](<http://apis-cor.com/en/about/news/first-house>) compared to traditional methods. The company is prepared to help the construction industry pivot to 3D printing for future homes around the world.
