i99

i99, a 2024 International design competition called upon students, designers and architects from around the world to help us address the global housing crisis by designing homes that could be built for $99,000 or less with ICON's 3D-printed construction technology. Two award-winning designs were selected 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.

The mixed-material palette balances urban sophistication with natural warmth, resulting in architecture that feels both grounded and serene.

“The promise of ICON’s 3D-printing technology is really exciting. Vulnerable populations like the homeless are never among the first to access leading-edge anything, but now here in Austin, Texas they’re among the first in line who will be living in some of the most unique homes ever built—and we think that’s a beautiful thing.
