Press releases from the resort emphasize that it will not be fully 3D-printed, but the technology that is allowing sand and salt water to be used as a building material is still innovative.The resort is on Benguerra Island, the second-largest island on the Bazaruto Archipelago, which broke off from the African mainland thousands of years ago.Kisawa was founded by Nina Flohr, a former executive at private jet charter company VistaJet.
