| In the not-too-distant future, building a new home may be as simple as printing it out.

The process of wielding 3D printers to make homes is in its infancy today, but someday soon you may look out your window at a large-scale printer, swiftly spitting out a whole home under the instruction of just one operator.
"Generally, they'll be much cheaper, much faster, much safer and with much nicer architectural features [than traditional homes]," says Dr. Behrokh Khoshnevis, creator of and lead researcher for Contour Crafting, one of the leading companies working on scaling 3D-printed homes for the masses.
It's really not as crazy as it sounds.
There are 3D printers making dishes, building furniture and repairing appliances right now. But a home needs a much bigger printer.
