Winsun is a chinese R&D company specialising in 3D printing architecture and building materials. In 2013, the firm made global headlines building 10 houses in a day with a proprietary mix of cement, sand, and recycled materials. It has built deluxe villas, houses with classical or modern courtyards, transportable buildings at Suzhou Industrial Park in Jiangsu, China (pictured above). Made with only 40 percent of the materials that a traditional construction requires, in 30 percent of the time, it represents massive savings in labor and material costs. The company holds 129 national patents.
