A roof over your is a human need, but 1.2 billion people in the world have no housing. A revolutionary, low-cost use of 3D printers may change . With 3D printing, are joined together by using a computer-controlled to create three-dimensional objects. Two have joined to try and ease by building affordable homes using 3D printing. Tech company ICON has developed a method for printing a one-floor house out of in a day for just $10,000. This is a of the time and cost needed to build other houses.

ICON teamed up with the non- housing group New Story. They will start building in developing countries. They will build 100 new homes in El Salvador next year. New Story's co- acknowledged that the 100 homes were just a drop in the . She said: "There are over 100 million people living in slum , in what we call mode." She said 3D-printed houses could become in richer countries in years to come. For the , she said: "The is ready now to print very high-quality, safe homes in the we're building."
