The first 3D-printed house in Portugal

Litehaus: building houses using 3D printing

The company Litehaus can produce up to 45 square meters of walls in just 20 hours. It plans to build 100 houses a year in rural areas. Could 3D printing be the future of construction? Today, we will look at what will become the first Portuguese house "built" using a 3D printer in Portela da Villa, in Torres Vedras.

The goal of Litehaus

Litehaus, which combines advanced technologies with the real estate sector, aims to "provide a sustainable and innovative solution for the [construction] industry, which is responsible for 42% of carbon dioxide emissions."

Technologies used

The process of creating living spaces was carried out using technologies such as artificial intelligence in the creative and design stages, and 3D printing during construction. Litehaus aims to focus on the production of modular buildings and homes using 3D printing, which consumes 67% less energy in production.

Company's goal

“We are here to make the industry think. Litehaus is on a mission to redefine living spaces by combining artificial intelligence technology, 3D printing, and modular homes to create buildings that reflect simplicity, innovation, and sustainability. Our goal is to build 70% faster and 20% cheaper, creating homes that embody elegance and minimalism, harmonized with the natural beauty of Portugal,” says Litehaus's Chief Creative Officer, Simi Lone.
