# Snaking 3D-Printed Homes The Landscape House by Enrico Dini Will Be the First of Its Kind By Meghan Young | Published 2013-01-22 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/landscape-house References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2013/01/20/dutch-architects-to-use-3d-printer-to-build-a-house/) & [universearchitecture](http://www.universearchitecture.com/) The [Landscape House](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shenzhen-bay-culture-square) is set to be the first home built using a [3D printer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bambu-lab-h2s). Although there have been some exciting and unexpected creations made using this technology, the Landscape House is perhaps one of the more impressive endeavors. Not only is the scale at which it will be built noteworthy, but the looping design, which was inspired by the Möbius strip, makes it quite the sight to see. Designed by Architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars of Universe Architecture in collaboration with Italian inventor [Enrico Dini](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/building-from-a-3d-printer-enrico-dini-gaudi-inspired-sand-and-epoxy-struct), the same man who printed a large sculpture out of sand, the Landscape House will take about 18 months to complete. Working with mathematician and artist Rinus Roelofs, it will be printed in sections using the giant D-Shape printer. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **3D Printing in Construction:** The Landscape House showcases the growing trend of using 3D printing technology to construct buildings, presenting opportunities for disruptive innovation in the construction industry. - **Looping Architectural Designs:** The Möbius strip-inspired looping design of the Landscape House highlights the trend of creating unique and unconventional architectural designs, opening up potential for disruptive innovation in the architecture industry. - **Collaboration in Design and Technology:** The collaboration between Architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars, Enrico Dini, and Rinus Roelofs for the Landscape House demonstrates the trend of cross-disciplinary collaboration in design and technology, offering opportunities for disruptive innovation through the combination of expertise. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Construction:** The use of 3D printing technology in construction, as seen in the Landscape House, presents disruptive innovation opportunities for the construction industry in terms of speed, cost-effectiveness, and design flexibility. - **Architecture:** The Möbius strip-inspired looping design utilized in the Landscape House highlights disruptive innovation potential in the architecture industry by challenging traditional design norms and pushing boundaries. - **Design and Technology:** The collaboration between architects and inventors, such as in the case of the Landscape House, opens up disruptive innovation opportunities in the design and technology industry by combining expertise to create novel solutions and products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Organically Printed Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lib-earth-house.md) - [3D-Printed Home Prototypes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tiny-house-lux.md) - [Fully Recyclable 3D-Printed Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biohome3d.md) - [3D-Printed Neighborhood Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wolf-ranch.md) - [3D-Printed Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3d-printed-hotel.md) - [Multi-Storey 3D-Printed Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qr3d.md) - [Record-Breaking 3D-Printed Neighborhoods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/icon-and-big.md) - [Compact 3d-Printed Housing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiny-house-lux.md) - [Inaugural 3D-Printed Social Housing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lnen.md)
