You can blame it on the millennials, or the tech industry, but pool tables are definitely out and ping pong is in. Or table tennis, if you want to seem a little more boujie. One can look no further than places like SPIN (the Susan Sarandon co-founded ping pong club) opening up all over the globes to realize we are in the midst of a table tennis revival. The game that was relegated to the basements of our youths is finally taking centre stage. And in a very big way. Designers have amped up the lux quotient, creating tables that not only play well but can be the star pieces in your interior design. So why not turn your dining room multi-purpose, swap out that regular table for one of these beauties?
1. The Vitro Table Tennis from 11 Ravens
($15,100)
The smooth metal lines and the lustrous acrylic surface of the piece exemplify minimalism at its finest. This table is sexy (if you can say that about a table). The effortless elegance of this model captivates the eye and makes for a perfect centerpiece in virtually any setting.
2. Trigon Table Tennis Table from 11 Ravens
($14,800)
We love the fact that 11 Ravens stepped up the game with natural broad-grain Walnut. The use of the natural wood makes it look like one of the finest modern dining tables out there. The minimalist design appears to float effortlessly in time and space – a perfect fit for any elegant home interior.
3. Revolution Black Steel from Killerspin
($4,499)
We think that the black-out design would be perfect in almost any contemporary space. The addition of built in paddles and balls pocket system keeps this piece functional and sleek.
4. The Ping-Pong Conference Table from Poppin
($2,999)
This table was first designed for corporate environments – doubling as a conference table when not in use. But we think it could be perfect in any home as a dining room table/ table tennis table. Who’s up for a round of ping pong after dinner? Every guest would be… This table now assembles totally tool-free, making it easier than ever to get your game on.
