Print a house out of what material? Will that material stand up to sub freezing and very high temperatures? Can it withstand a temperature variable between indoor and outdoor temps? Does it have lateral strength against wind and snow? Does it deteriorate in sunlight? Will it last more than 10 years? Is it flammable?
I can walk down my street in Northern New England and see brick buildings that are over 100 years old in a harsh climate, and that were reasonably affordable when they were built. The shapes and contours are usable and attractive to most people. They are able to be remodeled and repaired using very basic technology.
There are reasons that Dymaxion Homes weren't popular.
