INDULGE YOUR INNER CHILD AND BRING THE CLASSIC ARCADE EXPERIENCE INTO YOUR HOME RECREATION ROOM WITH THIS CONTEMPORARY-CHIC BASKETBALL COURT MADE FROM WOOD, GLASS, AND METAL

BY ARCHANA AITHAL ROSE

Celebrated Canadian industrial designer Calen Knauf introduces Home Court, a contemporary take on the classic arcade experience that fuses high-quality craftsmanship with high-glam materials like wood, glass, and metal, creating both a functional gaming platform and a visually stunning piece of art. This sleekly designed game emulates the nostalgic sounds of a traditional hardwood court, enhanced by floating design elements that minimize visual clutter. Built with hardy tempered glass and specially engineered composite wood panels, the backboard and ball-return surface ensure both structural integrity and superior sound quality, resisting warping over time.

As a nod to the treasured arcade games of yesteryear, visible cables add a tactile element while cleverly juxtaposing the overall minimalist design of the structure. A spacious lower tier offers storage for ten mini composite leather game balls, keeping them neatly organized when not in use. Finished with stainless steel hardware, rubberized nylon wheels for easy mobility, and locally sourced hand-knotted cotton and silk nets from Vancouver artisans, every small detail of the Home Court reflects a commitment to excellence and a playful blast from the past.
