Serendix, the Japanese 3D-printed housing company, plans to build a 47-square-metre 3D Print Park at Tokyu Land's LOGI'Q Kobe Shin-Nagata logistics facility, which is scheduled for completion in August 2026. The park is designed for a triangular unused parcel within the development and is expected to require only one and a half days of construction. LOGI'Q Kobe Shin-Nagata is a four-storey logistics centre in Kobe's Nagata Ward with 56,437 square metres of total floor area, located about 3.7 kilometres from the Kobe-Nagata interchange. Serendix CTO Kunihiro Iida said the company intends to address replacement demand for concrete structures.
The project extends Serendix's construction-printing record beyond standalone homes into small, site-specific infrastructure within a commercial logistics setting. Its relevance is less the park's absolute size than the use of additive construction where conventional design and construction methods leave an irregular residual site underused. That is a practical test of whether short-build-duration printed structures can be sold as a property-development solution rather than solely as housing demonstrations. Serendix completed Japan's first 3D-printed house, serendix10, in March 2022 and, with the JR West Group, built a 3D-printed station building at Hatsushima Station in March 2025.
For developers, the important proof point will be repeatable delivery on constrained sites: geometry flexibility is valuable only if permitting, structural requirements, finishing work and operating responsibility can be standardized alongside the printed structure. The Kobe installation therefore adds an application reference for non-residential, low-footprint structures while remaining a modest project rather than evidence of broad construction-volume substitution.
