3D Printed Building Tour with The Design Tourist

Click to watch this YouTube episode of The Design Tourist. On the web show, viewers can follow the travels and adventures of host Karen LeBlanc as she explores global trends in her quest for unique design finds. This episode of The Design Tourist takes viewers on a digital tour of the 3D printed building nicknamed AMIE (the Additive Manufacturing Integrated Energy demonstration project) that you can live in. The 3D printed building shares power with a 3D printed hybrid car. The project is the brainchild of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in collaboration with the 3D printers from TruDesign. This 3D home holds promise for the next generation’s challenges and even as a possible source of electricity in parts of the world with limited access.
