To date,
the D-shape concept has been restricted to ‘printing’ two storey
buildings with an area of up to 1100 square metres from a mixture of
sand and mortar. The proposed Möbius house represents an ambitious
attempt taking 3D printing a few steps closer to being just another
construction method.

A Dutch architect hopes to use 3D printer
technology to ‘print off’ a futuristic 12,000 square feet ‘endless’
house. Janjaap Ruijssenaars of Universe Architecture aims to complete
construction of his concept 'Landscape House' in 2014.
The futuristic house uses the principle of the one-sided Möbius strip,
the mathematical conundrum of a strip of paper twisted on itself. To
the eye, a Möbius strip clearly has two sides but tracing a finger along
its surface confirms the ‘impossibility’ of a uni-dimensional object.
The architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars of the Dutch company Universe Architecture is collaborating with artist mathematician Rinus Roelofs and Enrico Dini. It was Dini who is credited with inventing the D-shape,
sometimes called a three-dimensional (3D) printer. The D-shape is a
machine capable of constructing three dimensional objects by placing
layers of sand, or some other suitable building material, on top of each
other combined with a glue or binder to hold the structure together.
The new project, which the architectural and mathematical team have
named ‘Landscape House,’ aims to construct a genuine 3 D structure using
3D print technology.

Speaking to
Pursuitist.com, Ruijssenaars said,
“We started to ask the question if a building can be like the landscape, in order to make a building that would not harm the landscape, or at least learn from the landscape.” “We analysed that the essence of landscape is that it has no beginning or ending, so it’s continuous, not only the fact the world is round but also water goes into land, valleys into mountains, it’s always continuous.”On the Möbius strip concept, he continued,
“you have to make a strip and then bend it in order to make this Möbius strip. But with a 3D printer, even a small model, we could make the whole structure from bottom to top without anyone seeing where it is beginning or ending,”According to Business Insider, the entire project would cost an estimated $5.3 million (€4 million). It's estimated that Landscape House would take at least 18 months to complete. The team designing the Möbius 3D house hope to present their new building at the 14th International Architecture Exhibition to be held in Venice from June 7 to November 23, 2014.
