The team and its commitment
After being on the road for several years, Julien and Karo wanted to recreate a base camp.
The original idea behind the Go-Box was to create a functional space for modern nomads who, like us, were always on the lookout for the best places to telecommute or rest between adventures.
Since then, the varied ideas and projects of our customers have inspired us to rethink the Go-Box, to expand its possibilities and meet all your needs, whether it’s a small creative workshop or a complete micro-home.

Why does the price per square foot seem higher than that of a traditional home?
It’s totally normal! Our units are compact, and every square foot is optimized with quality materials and complete installations (toilet, kitchen, etc.). Regardless of the type of home, a toilet costs the same – whether it’s in 100 sq. ft. or 1000 sq. ft. The result: the cost per square foot may seem higher, but the whole unit remains affordable and functional.
