The Austin tech startup that 3D printed a house in the East Austin Community First Village wants to move forward with even more of them to help end homelessness. Icon founder and CEO Jason Ballard says their homes are better, more resilient and cheaper to build than conventional homes. He says they’re on track to provide houses for half the cost of conventional construction.
