Functional tennis courts built as global art installations.
We collaborate with artists to create full scale tennis courts in unexpected locations globally. From refurbished brick factories and warehouse rooftops to lavender fields; each court reflects the spirit of the artist, it's location and the surrounding culture.
C.R.C. operations intersect somewhere between tennis club, architecture firm and large scale art gallery.
Every court we make enriches community through sport, culture and art.
Whether you are simply there to see large scale art or play a match, our hope is to create impact: athletically and artistically.
The bar of entry is high. Either through excessive wait times or financial costs. An average club in London boasts a waitlist time of 2–5 years. Toronto averages 4+ years, often up to 10.
Decrease barriers to play and increase access to art and culture through sport. All while establishing a diverse array of exciting tennis courts globally.
Evergreen Brickworks is a heritage industrial site, nestled into Toronto's Rosedale Valley, a place that celebrates creativity, community, and sustainability. The perfect canvas for our first installation.
Given the scope of our operation, we work with a wide breadth of partners across sport, culture and commerce.
From tennis tournaments and city municipalities, to household brands, cultural institutions, property developers and community organisations, and many more.

Each court is designed for its location, drawing from the history, culture, and character of where it lives. No two courts will ever look the same.
Courts exist for a finite time. This impermanence is the point, creating urgency, memory and meaning, the same palpability of all great matches.
Partnerships, press, artist submissions, or just to say hello.
