La Foca House

SINCE 1960, ONLY CUSTOM HOMES IN SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE

We are among the first Italian companies to believe in prefabricated wooden houses. And we were right.
Our story begins in 1960 with Sergio Oggero, my father, passionate about construction and with a pioneering vision. At a time when the concept of prefabricated was still immature in Italy, he decided to move to Sweden to specialize. He collaborated with A-Hus, one of the leading Scandinavian wooden house manufacturers, from whom he learned not only advanced construction techniques but a true philosophy of living: "The house is an integral part of those who live in it. It is a garment that must be tailor-made, with care."

What our customers
They say about us

Anna Conti | Testimonial 7 Months After Handover

We had a single-family house built by La Foca House. The house was built (to the basic standard) in 20 days and another 20 for the internal systems. You can trust because having a house managed by real professionals and real producers will let you sleep soundly. Thank you La Foca.

Rodrigo Melacarne

In 2015, we began working with La Foca House. Despite a few challenges posed by the language barrier,
we were more than satisfied with their work, organisation, and constant support.

the language barrier, we were more than satisfied with the work, the organization and the

Carlino Family

Our company met La Foca House in 2014 for the construction of a suite-annexe (about 500 m2
on two floors) of the Hotel Crestas in Savognin (CH).
My wife and I had our house built, according to our design, completely turnkey by La Foca
House. We were not wrong, after three years of living there we are very satisfied.
