ICON, which builds homes using 3D printing, has closed on $56 million in Series C funding co-led by Norwest Venture Partners and Tiger Global, the company has confirmed to TechCrunch exclusively. Founded in late 2017, ICON launched during SXSW in March 2018 with the first permitted 3D-printed home in the U.S. That 350-square-foot house took about 48 hours (at 25% speed) to print. ICON still plans to “design and build a selection of key projects across residential, hospitality, social/affordable housing, and those within the Department of Defense,” the spokesperson said.
