Alongside the hotel, the project will include 18 residential homes.

The first two units, featuring walls 3.7 metres high, are currently under construction. One will be a three-bed suite, while the other is a standard hotel room. The curved beige walls are being printed using the ICON Vulcan, a 14.2-metre-wide, 4.7-metre-high 3D printer weighing 4.75 tonnes.
