CO-HO Is Now ShiftingPact® Certified: A Major Milestone in Our Sustainability Journey
CO-HO Secures ShiftingPact® Certification With a Score of 60 - Reinforcing Our Commitment to be recognized as a Sustainable Company offering Circular and Socially Driven Urban Hubs.
We are proud to announce that CO-HO has been officially certified by Shifting Pact, achieving a score of 60, a strong recognition of our long-term commitment to urban sustainability, circular construction, resource-efficiency, and community well-being.
This certification validates CO-HO’s approach as a next-generation actor in urban regeneration — one that builds not by consuming resources, but by requalifying existing spaces, strengthening communities, and designing modular, low-impact and socially enriching hubs.
A Mission Aligned With the Urban SDGs
CO-HO was built with a clear mission: to contribute to SDG 11.3 – Sustainable Urbanisation.
Requalifying Existing Urban Sites
Instead of building from scratch, we transform existing urban sites into vibrant community hubs that blend:
hospitality,
workspace,
modular living,
and strong local anchoring.
Our hubs enhance neighbourhood vitality, promote mixed-use districts, and help cities transition toward more resilient, inclusive and low-carbon ways of living.
Community Well-Being at the Core
SDG 3.4.2 – Strengthening Well-being and Social Connection
CO-HO designs spaces made to bring people together.
Our hubs are intentionally open, welcoming and highly social environments where community, well-being and hospitality are central.
Whether through shared amenities, common areas, cultural programming, or informal daily interactions, we cultivate:
social connection,
mental well-being,
and a sense of belonging.
Smarter, More Efficient Energy Use
SDG 7.3 – Energy Efficiency
Our modular buildings and compact layouts are conceived to minimize energy consumption.
By mutualising equipment, optimizing usage patterns and reducing unnecessary square meters, CO-HO significantly lowers:
energy usage per resident,
resource consumption,
and long-term environmental impact.
Sustainable, Resilient and Adaptable Infrastructure
SDG 9.1 – Reinventing Urban Infrastructure
CO-HO develops modular, adaptable and durable infrastructures capable of supporting mixed uses — from co-living to hospitality, coworking, community services and cultural activities.
Our hubs strengthen local economies while offering cities new models of contemporary, flexible and inclusive urban infrastructure.
Circular Construction, Reversible Processes
SDG 9.4 – Modernising the Built Environment
We actively modernise the real estate and construction sectors through:
modular design,
reversible building techniques,
systematic material reuse,
and drastically reduced reliance on virgin raw materials.
Every project minimises waste and maximises reuse — at design, construction and reconfiguration stages.
Resource-First Design: Building With What Already Exists
SDG 12.2 – Sustainable Resource Management
Our philosophy is simple: we source before we design.
Before drawing anything, we inventory:
materials available locally,
existing structures,
deconstruction streams,
reusable components.
These become the starting point of the architectural concept.
This “resource-first” approach:
dramatically reduces the need for new materials,
ensures near-total circularity,
extends the lifespan of existing assets,
and decreases the environmental footprint of every project.
What the Shifting Pact Score of 60 Means
A score of 60 places CO-HO among the most progressive transition-focused companies in our category.
It validates:
our circular design methodology,
our measurable social impact,
our commitment to resource-efficient construction,
and our dedication to community-focused, resilient urban hubs.
But more importantly, it sets a foundation to keep improving — season after season, project after project.
Looking Ahead
As we expand our ecosystem of modular hubs and community-driven urban villages, this certification reinforces our belief that the future of cities must be:
circular,
community-based,
resource-efficient,
and deeply human.
CO-HO will continue to pioneer new ways of living, working and connecting, guided by sustainability, circularity and social impact.
