Luxury camping.

In the heart of the art center, the Bjarke Ingels Group has partnered with 3D printing specialist ICON to create a series of 3D printed structures for the nomadic Texas campsite and hotel known as El Cosmico.
This ambitious project, which aims to redefine the future of luxury camping in the Texas desert, has involved extensive experimentation with groundbreaking architectural forms and construction techniques.
These groundbreaking homes seamlessly integrate 3D printing technology with traditional earth-based construction methods, showcasing a diverse range of architectural elements, including domes, arches, vaults and parabolic shapes.
This cutting-edge technology is uniquely positioned to create what can be described as a ‘primitive architectural language’.
Visitors to El Cosmico will have access to the property’s pool, spa, and other communal amenities.
