In a groundbreaking fusion of cutting-edge technology and visionary design, ICON and Liz Lambert have embarked on a revolutionary project: the world’s first 3D-printed hotel and residences in Marfa, Texas. This bold venture promises to redefine luxury accommodations while enhancing the cultural and economic landscape of the region.

Construction has begun on this trailblazing development, spearheaded by ICON, a leader in advanced construction technologies, in collaboration with the renowned architectural firm Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG). The project will not only relocate but also significantly expand the beloved El Cosmico to a sprawling 60+ acre property.

The new El Cosmico will be a haven of creativity and comfort, offering:

  • Guest Accommodations: Thoughtfully designed spaces that blend seamlessly with the desert environment.
  • Amenities: A luxurious pool, a serene bathhouse, a gourmet restaurant, and exclusive private residences.
  • Architectural Marvels: Utilizing 3D-printing technology, the designs will feature unique architectural elements such as domes, arches, and parabolic forms.

For those looking to immerse themselves in this avant-garde lifestyle, the “Sunday Homes” are available for purchase. These homes, which boast expansive views of the majestic Davis Mountains, are priced starting from $2.29 million and are listed with Kuper Sotheby’s International Realty. The first model home is set to be completed by the end of the year, offering a glimpse into the future of residential luxury.

The development is not just about innovative architecture; it’s about fostering a vibrant community that harmonizes with the natural desert surroundings. The project emphasizes:

  • Creative Culture: A space where art and nature coalesce.
  • Sustainable Design: Leveraging 3D-printing technology to create organic, sustainable structures.
  • Community Enrichment: Providing high-quality jobs and affordable housing through ICON’s Initiative 99, thereby contributing to Marfa’s economic and cultural fabric.

While the original El Cosmico will remain open until 2025, anticipation builds as the new development is slated for completion in 2026. This project is more than an architectural feat; it’s a commitment to sustainable, forward-thinking design that enriches the community.
