They made the model take her boots off inside the dome.

Another house

Imagine, my very own designed House, then I could say I’m into 3D printing...

I love the idea, but mostly for novelty reasons. I wonder how these actually compare to traditional construction processes. When they calculate "time" and "cost", I wonder if they are factoring in things like equipment setup/teardown, etc.

I'm also wondering what materials they are using in that spray-foam looking house and curious how environmentally sustainable / friendly that stuff is?

@Nifty, you’ve just gone and spoiled my dream house with your nitpicking...

The 95m (1022ft) square house - built for a family of five with four bedrooms and a big central space

1022 sq. ft. divided into FOUR bedrooms and a BIG central space?

Yeah, and this sleeps 4:

The link does state: "It is also more environmentally-friendly than traditional construction, as there is no waste."

Instead of polyurethane insulation, maybe you can get them to spray an eco-friendly vegetable oil version or Icynene.

But you and the Mrs. looked so happy in the article.

I missed that part, thanks! I guess there's validity to that. I remember hearing that some HUGE % of local landfills are construction waste.
