Every court counts.
Darceon archives the city's playing courts: where they are, how the game goes, who spends their evenings there.
Darceon archives the city's playing courts. Every drop is a report on a court and its people. It starts in Turin. Then other courts, other cities.
The T-shirt takes the court off the court.

On the back, the real plan of a court: the four half-courts, the chestnut trees, the lampposts and the orange hoop of Court A. On the chest, the seal.
Comfort Colors 1717 base garment, garment-dyed: every piece has slightly different shades. Sizes S-XXL, measurements in centimetres in the product sheet.
Four steps, always the same, for every court in the archive.
The plan starts from OpenStreetMap: streets, blocks, the park, the courts.
What stays are the court lines and what is really around: chestnut trees, benches, lampposts.
The plan becomes a three-ink stencil. Only one spot lit: the orange hoop.
Direct-to-garment print: 30 × 40 cm on the back, the seal on the chest.
They hold on every outdoor court. Nobody writes them down: you learn them by playing.
The plans of documented courts can be downloaded under an open licence. Corrections found on the court go back to OpenStreetMap.
