Book a Stay in This 3D-Printed Tiny House

The architects used a number of different geometric designs on the facade to showcase the variety that can be achieved with the technique, while also optimizing insulation and material consumption. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

According to DUS Architects, the Urban Cabin is an example of tiny dwellings addressing large housing issues. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

The Urban Cabin is a research project for DUS's larger-scale investigations into 3D-printed architecture. It is made almost completely of a bio-plastic that can be shredded and printed into new objects at the end of its lifecycle. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

Just like smaller-scale printing projects, DUS's extra-large designs are created by depositing a material layer by layer. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

The architects see 3D printing as a way to address housing shortages and to provide emergency housing in case of emergency. Photo: DUS Architects

The structure has just enough space for a single bed, which folds into a couch when not in use. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

In an industrial stretch of Amsterdam, Dus Architects created Urban Cabin, a micro-dwelling that's completely 3D printed. Photo: Ossip van Duivenbode

The site also includes a sculptural bathtub set outside the house—3D printed, of course. Photos: Ossip van Duivenbode

The project is a bit of a preview of the firm's full-size 3D-Print Canal House, which Dus Architects announced in 2013. That project is nearing its final stages and may be realized in 2017. 3dprintcanalhouse.com Photo: Ossip van Duivenbode

The structure clocks in at just under 90 square feet, and is made entirely of bioplastic. Photo: Ossip van Duivenbode

DUS Architects has made investigating on-demand custom housing solutions a primary concern. The Urban Cabin is made of a bio-plastic made of linseed oil that can be shredding and recycled into a new printed project. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek

The Urban Cabin includes a sofa that doubles as a twin bed, a small porch and amble glazing. Photo: Sophia van den Hoek
