At ICON, we take pride in the strong partnerships we have forged with nonprofit organizations, such as Mobile Loaves & Fishes, the Austin nonprofit that has been faithfully serving the area’s homeless community for more than 25 years. Recently, we had the privilege of volunteering our time and efforts at Community First! Village, the master planned development serving the Austin-area’s homeless community, to enhance and beautify the property where we initially 3D printed homes for the "neighbors" of the village. This experience not only allowed us to give back, but also reinforced our commitment to supporting and uplifting the communities we serve. Thank you to all the volunteers who participated and to Community First! Village for their ongoing partnership! #volunteer #austin #serving #housing #homelessness

Life at ICON. Meet Sydney Nowaski, Machine Learning Engineer II on the BuildAI team, who is working on Vitruvius, ICON's new AI architect for designing and building homes. Vitruvius will help anyone design homes and generate floor plans, interior renders, and exterior renders in minutes based on their own desires, budgets, and feedback. In the near future, Vitruvius will progress all the way through schematic designs and in the coming years be able to produce full construction documents as well as permit-ready designs, budgets, and schedules. What truly makes Vitruvius unique is the combination of design and construction know-how. That knowledge is what allows Vitruvius to produce designs that can actually be built. You can experience Vitruvius at vitruvius.ai.

i99 Winners Revealed! Today we are excited to announce the winners of the second (and final) phase of Initiative 99, the global architecture competition to reimagine affordable housing that can be built for $99,000 or less. In addition to the total prize purse of $1M for both Phase 1 and Phase 2, ICON, the Initiative 99 jury and Mobile Loaves & Fishes (MLF) have selected two award-winning designs in the open category for ICON to 3D print within MLF’s Community First! Village’s expansion of their growing master planned development serving the Austin-area’s homeless community. Breaking ground in early 2025, the Initiative 99-designed homes at Community First! Village will be brought to life in part from grant funding from Wells Fargo, which has committed $500,000 to serve the underhoused community.

What is it like to live in a 3D-printed home? Meet Holly, who shares why she chose one of our homes in Georgetown, Texas at Wolf Ranch, built with Lennar and codesigned by BIG. “I believe the added benefit of living in a 3D-printed home is the reduced energy cost. It maintains its temperature very accurately. On a 100-degree day, we are just totally comfortable." Lennar is now selling the newly available homes starting in the high 300s.

Life slows down here. Marfa, TX is soon to be home of the new El Cosmico, a 60+ acre development by Liz Lambert, ICON and BIG-Bjarke Ingels Group. The relocation and expansion of El Cosmico will showcase entirely new architectural approaches made possible by large-scale 3D-printing including domes, arches, vaults and parabolic forms. The innovative development will feature El Cosmico guest accommodations, new hospitality programming, including a pool, bathhouse and restaurant, as well as private residences now available and exclusively listed with Kuper Sotheby’s. Another facet of the project will be to build additional 3D-printed affordable housing units in Marfa to serve the evolving needs of the town where the existing El Cosmico now sits. The designs for these homes will be selected from ICON’s Initiative 99 global architecture competition where more that 60 countries were represented in the contest submissions.
