At Oncaldera, we have created an innovative, functional, high performance, energy efficient, cost competitive, and unmistakably green low carbon building solution for housing needs.
MODERN, EASY, BEAUTIFUL
Oncaldera homes are simple, sophisticated, and sexy. Combining the functionality of modular homes, the versatility of shipping containers and the beauty of modern architecture and design, we work hand
in hand with you to give you the beautiful home of your dreams, down to the very last detail. Form and function are two elements that are present in the planning process of every project we take on. It’s easy to build something pretty, but the real challenge lies in optimizing both the beauty and the functionality of newly designed structures while maintaining affordability.

Occupy
It's as simple as that.
Leaving behind the old, slow, energy inefficient, and inferior ways to build, our construction system specifically targets projects where rapid speed of construction and ease of assembly is important. By
significantly reducing labor costs and project cycle times, the “green” building solution using prefabricated durable materials allow a high-performance structure to be constructed by as much as 50% below traditional construction prices and time.
AFFORDABILITY AT ITS FINEST
Oncaldera, has partnered with TerraOne.org a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, to provide housing solutions for everyone. With our homes priced from $75 to $180 per
square feet, and our financing options, everyone who wants a home can have one.
BUILDING DESIGN
This is a revolutionary step change in the way we build by reducing onsite labor costs. All walls and ceiling are super insulated with higher R values from R-21 to R-60. Building operating costs are reduced, HVAC systems can be down sized as much as 60%, and operating times to heat or cool the structure are shortened. Outfitted with every possible thing you need, even solar, our homes are built to pass every housing safety standard and building code without sacrificing any of your comforts.
HOUSING SUSTAINABILITY
Homes made of shipping containers are virtually indestructible. These containers are designed to hold
up to thirty tons of weight and to be stacked more than ten high; that’s over 200 tons when fully loaded -- all the while being subjected to physical stress, saltwater, and varying temperatures. So there’s no doubt that shipping containers can easily withstand whatever weight loads a typical house will place upon it, withstand high winds, resist fires and earthquakes and stay strong in any climate and geography; even resist pests like termites, mold, dry rot and other fungus infestations.
