The housing shortage problem

At Lurabitat we facilitate access to robotic technology for the construction of accessible, decent and quality homes.

All over the world today there is a serious problem of housing shortages, sales and rental prices are very high, and new construction faces a lack of labor. In Spain, the year 2023 was estimated at 700,000 vacancies in the construction sector.

With our 3D printers for construction, we provide an effective solution to this and many other problems since we can build much faster, cheaper, more efficiently, and with respect for the environment.

The 3D printing project is a new technology that we developed along with an automated construction process that allows us to build structures layer by layer with concrete mortar from 3D modeling data uploaded to the printer's computer.
This allows us to build homes and other architectural elements in days, not weeks or months, in a much more economical and efficient way, and with higher construction and material quality.

We face the challenges of the lack and difficulty of access to housing, to make it accessible with a rapid industrialized and robotic construction system with the highest quality.

The right to adequate housing goes beyond having a roof over your head
It is the right to live in a home with security and dignity.

In the United States alone, the majority of people cannot buy a home due to the high construction costs, even if they have land, and therefore it is necessary to build 3.8 million to 5.5 million housing units for families of low and moderate income, and first-time home buyers.

Availability: With our printer we make homes easily available, helping to end homelessness and ridiculously high construction prices. Even in our modern world, more than a billion people (1 in 7) do not have tolerable shelter, and no one deserves to live in survival mode. This is the reason why innovative solutions like ours are required, they serve to address and solve such a serious problem, which impacts millions of people around the world.

Not everyone can enjoy decent housing

More than one billion people reside in substandard housing and informal settlements. Every year, several million people are homeless and displaced as a result of development projects, conflict, natural disasters or the climate crisis, and many of them are victims of forced evictions.

Housing is increasingly seen as an opportunity for investment, which it is, but we should also look at it as a social good and fundamental human right.
