Enrico Dini is known for incredible innovations in 3D printing and the first to build a working 3D printer for printing buildings. He became world famous as “The Man Who Prints Houses”.

He is presently working with Foster & partners, Renzo Piano, Fuksas, Zaha Hadid Architects, UN studio on this new technology.
