Unbreakable Courts
To keep basketball culture alive, we found a loophole in the Brazilian law so that street courts are no longer destroyed by the real estate market: transforming then into cultural heritage. And we spread this method to anyone to make a street basketball court unbreakable.
Unbreakable Court #1, Natal, Rio Grande do Norte
To prove that the 5 steps really work, one street court has already been transformed into a heritage site, paying homage to the local culture: one of Brazil's greatest players, Oscar Schmidt, who was born in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. And other street courts are already in the process of becoming cultural heritage.

Unbreakable Court #2, Móoca, São Paulo
The second basketball court was in São Paulo’s traditional Móoca neighborhood—surrounded by commercial and residential buildings and at high risk of being torn down by the real state. But using the 5 steps, we made sure it was unbreakable, not demolished.
