Xtreme Habitats Institute

Xtreme Habitats Institute is a research nonprofit dedicated to developing and sharing innovative building technologies for construction in extreme environments on Earth and beyond. With a focus on adaptable, affordable, and sustainable systems, the institute aims to address the unique challenges faced by isolated communities, particularly in rural Alaska, through advanced 3D printing solutions utilizing local materials.

Collaborating with partners such as Penn State University and the City of Nome, Alaska, Xtreme Habitats Institute is pioneering research in 3D concrete printing to create affordable housing while also preparing for future space colonization. By leveraging insights from Alaskan geology and Arctic conditions, the institute seeks to develop sustainable living solutions that can be applied both on Earth and in extraterrestrial environments.
