The Tiny House Lux, designed by ODA Architects in Luxembourg, represents a pioneering advancement in 3D-printed modular housing. This non-towable tiny house, spanning 47m² with a narrow and elongated layout, was constructed with remarkable speed—the core 3D printing took just one week, and the entire project is expected to be completed within four weeks. The design emphasizes functional efficiency, featuring a living area, kitchen, bathroom, technical space, and bedroom, all arranged to maximize usability within its compact footprint. Sustainability and self-sufficiency are central to the project. The house employs solar-powered underfloor heating using film technology, with solar panels on the roof supplying electricity for heating and other energy needs. The 3D-printed walls incorporate eco-friendly insulation, reducing emissions compared to traditional construction methods. Its modular design allows for assembly, disassembly, and potential relocation, minimizing demolition waste and supporting circular construction practices. Additionally, the house is designed to integrate harmoniously
