Modular refers to something constructed from standardized, independent parts (modules) that can be easily joined, rearranged, or replaced.

So…. almost like if they print around some modules that have standard hookups you wouldn’t need tradesman?

A 3D printed house is not something that fits this. At all. If you think it does, we will just have to agree to disagree.

The interior parts all are. That’s why a technician can do it.

We might be thinking of different things. The interior is somehow different? I know some might frame up drywall to cover the concrete, but what are you talking about the interior parts as?

No, can you not buy “kitchen units” where you are? Premade kitchen cabinets with installed appliances?

All they need is water/gas/electrical hookup and you’re done after sliding them in. Lots of outdoor kitchens go this route.

Hell they even make modules for high rises here that they just crane in that are complete bathrooms. Like the ones that are for a dozen people.
