WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT

Today’s design-conscious ping pong fans are looking beyond the typical buying considerations and seeking a higher level of design that complements their homes.

“The functional green styles of the past just won’t do for those looking to smash their interiors game,” said Nicky Rampley-Clarke, The Sunday Times.

This new approach breaks free from traditional regulation sizes and standards, and instead benefits from dual functionality.

Our ArtTables are playable, wall-mountable artworks — crafted in small editions.

When they’re not in use, they’re bold, colourful design pieces, and when they’re down, they’re the most fun you can have on four legs.

I have bought this amazing ping pong table for my son's 30th birthday. He is crazy about tennis, table tennis, paddle and all related ball sports. Yep ! I was won over by the successful combinaison of art & sport. What a wonderful idea - it seems so simple, yet no one has implemented it before. Kudos from 🇨🇭to Art of Ping Pong and many thanks to Marley who ensured delivery ran successfully.

Customer photo review of We Need To Play

We fell in love with the concept the moment we saw one at Goodhood in London. Having it hanging and playing it in our own living room makes it even better. We love the creativity, the sense of play and the quality.

We Need To Play

I mean - it is by far the coolest and most well crafted thing we have bought in recent memory. What a find! Thank you 💙

We Need To Play

This is a thoughtfully crafted piece that is truly dual purpose. It really jazzed up our playroom

We Need To Play

Firstly, it looks absolutely beautiful on the wall but it's also just so much fun to play as a family or when friends come around. The table is expertly made and the legs & net fold elegantly into the table - making it a flawless table to play on for years to come.

We Need To Play

Just received the table - all I can say is WOW - it's even nicer than i expected. So beautiful and well crafted. Well done to you and the team for such an amazing product.

In Sync

You have such an amazing product that’s so well designed and with all graphics design, packaging etc. Love it!!

Pong Classic

Just wanted to drop you a little note to say thank you for the table. Wow. They are a thing of beauty and I can see why they are so popular – you talented folk!

Duo

The ArtTable went up on the wall a couple of weeks ago and has been keeping visitors entertained ever since. We've especially enjoyed the surprise when people see what the 'artwork' really is.

Talking Heads

Oh my goodness, really? I just unboxed it, and it is GORGEOUS. Now I can't wait for my partner to get home and have a game with me :D Thank you so much. TOP QUALITY item - a mega treat to me from a bit of inheritance from my Dad as we loved to play ping pong together.

Unity

I came across the ArtTable. And I'm like, ‘Oh fuck, I've gotta have that’. Like it's too nice not to. It's just been the nicest addition to our home because I like great ping pong, which is really recreational. But the thing that stood out was the artwork, and just the presentation of the whole thing. It is everything! Everyone comments the minute they walk in the door. They're like, “oh wow”, and that’s before they even realise it's a ping pong table. It’ll get written into the will if someone's lucky enough and they're done!

Inside Outside

Newly in love with the sight of my ArtTable every day

She Stole The Show

Looks great, very well built and a lot of fun to play

Talking Heads

A unique present for a guy that already has a lot :-) Love your story, love the products and playing ping pong on the small table really is a lot of fun!

Talking Heads

It’s one of a kind. I love the concept, design, and also the ethics behind the company.

Talking Heads

I just love the idea of a piece of art that is also a table tennis table! And eventually I got my wife to agree!

Chaos Control

I liked the striking designs and concept and the quality of the craftsmanship and design is excellent.

Chaos Control

I am very happy with our Ping Pong Table! So happy that I would like to purchase a 2nd table for friends of mine.

Talking Heads

I really don't wanna have things that everyone has and has hanging on their walls. But it's quite hard for me cuz I love art, but I'm not like too deep into it. And then lots of things are super, super expensive. And I think this, well it was also expensive, but it was fine because it was handmade.

She Stole The Show

So happy to have it. And then I talk to people about it and they're like, Oh my God, this is so cool. And wow, I never heard of it. So it's a story you can tell. Yeah. And I love to tell stories, so this is like so special.

She Stole The Show

I love telling my friends about it because most of them, they don't really realise what I'm telling them. They're like, ‘no, this can't be like a ping pong table hanging on your wall.

She Stole The Show

I would say buying it is like buying a lifestyle and a feeling because you found something special. You’re buying like joyful nights with friends and you've got something to do and that’s valuable. And there's the art and you have something to talk about. And every time I'm like, this is so nice.

She Stole The Show

We have this beautiful large room, But I didn't need a full size ping pong table. So it had to be pretty. Originally I thought something just very simple, maybe you know, like a, a stained wood or something. And then I came across your product and I just fell in love. It’s beautiful.

Unity

I have a good friend who here in LA or in the US is a pretty respected designer. And and I sent her a picture of it and she was like, Oh my goodness, go for it.

Unity

So beautiful. It's a piece of art that the whole family can enjoy. I love it!

Unity

I received my order on December 23rd. The gift was a big surprise and everyone liked it very much - I wish you had seen those faces. Until today, no one can pass this table without wanting to play and even the boys said that this table looks very beautiful and stylish. Well done and thank you all very much.   Have a great Holiday Season!

Talking Heads

I have been obsessed with your ping pong tables since finding your collection on the Selfridges website (The yellow smiley faces table was my favourite). You are amazing!

Talking Heads

It looks so beautiful! The perfect gift for a friend;)

Talking Heads

We are super happy with the table,it even more beautiful in real than on the photo 🤩. It was delivered just before Xmas,so that was perfect.

She Stole The Show

The table arrived today, and it was packed beautifully with everything intact. Really appreciate it!

Talking Heads

I want to personally thank you and your team for this awesome bday present!  Thanks very much! This table is an absolute winner in our family already...

Talking Heads

All good with everything including the (addictive) number of games already played on that table which made our neighbour to ask about the excitement. We invited him for a game….he stayed for 2hrs. Happy Days.

Talking Heads

It's been a great success as everyone's that comes to the house praise your amazing table. I’ve spread the word about The Art of Ping Pong so maybe we can have a few more tables in Portugal.

Talking Heads

We are very pleased with the table you sent. It arrived in mint condition due to its expert packaging. The table has already brought much joy to my family. With schooling and working at home due to the pandemic, we can quickly grab a game during mini breaks. Fantastic! Thank you for doing this. I wish you all the best!

Talking Heads

The table has arrived in perfect condition and fits like a treat in our flat! It looks fantastic and plays really well.

Talking Heads

We are delighted with our mini table and have had some epic battles on it in the studio. I would like to say that I am the undisputed champion but that would I am afraid be nothing short of an outrageous lie!

WHERE ART BECOMES PLAY

ART YOU CAN PLAY

ART YOU CAN PLAY

An ArtTable is more than a piece of art — it’s a wall-mountable artwork that transforms into a ping pong table in seconds. Unlike traditional tables, which are bulky, hard to store, and rarely used, an ArtTable keeps the joy of play always within reach. Beautiful enough to display proudly, it brings fun into your home without compromise, a constant reminder to embrace spontaneity and connection. Designed for everyone, it completes your space while inviting moments of delight, making your home truly feel like yours.

A HAND-PERFECTED WORK OF ART

A HAND-PERFECTED WORK OF ART

Our ArtTables are designed for art lovers, design aficionados and interior obsessives who value beautifully crafted objects and crave instantaneous moments of joy. Each one is made from premium-grade birch plywood and meticulously hand-finished in our workshop — a balance of design precision, artisanal care and collectable value.

A STRONG FINISH

A STRONG FINISH

An ArtTable is not just a beautiful work of art; it’s a source of joy and entertainment. To protect the artwork, each one is carefully hand-sanded and sealed with a clear, hard-wearing varnish, leaving a smooth-to-the-touch surface that preserves both form and function. Every ArtTable is personally signed off and carefully packed by our team — a final touch of human care before it leaves our studio.

UNIQUELY YOURS

UNIQUELY YOURS

Every ArtTable is a collaboration between ink and wood. Printed directly onto birch, the ink seeps into the grain, creating a finish that feels stained into the surface. Each sheet of plywood also carries its own subtle grain patterns and tonal variations, so no two ArtTables are ever the same — each a one-of-a-kind piece of art and play, uniquely yours.

OFF THE WALL AND ON WITH THE GAME

MEET MARCO

Marco often uses simple shapes and bright colours to promote positive statements, which perfectly aligns with our AoPP ethos. So we asked Marco a few questions to get behind his thinking for this collaboration.

AoPP: What inspired you to collaborate with the Art of Ping Pong?

Marco: I’ve wanted to collaborate with Art of Ping Pong for as long as I can remember—maybe since 2018. I first spotted one of their ArtTables while walking through London—I can’t recall if it was in a shop window or on Instagram—and we kept in touch for years. It’s incredible to finally see this set come to life!

AoPP: Can you talk us through your ideas behind the design?

Marco: It’s a simple expression of home—lamp, lips, eyes, stairs—through geometric forms. ‘We need to play’ is a reminder that, no matter our age, play always matters.

AoPP: It is no secret that the duality of art + play is at the core of everything we do at AoPP.  We are motivated by the simple concept that art + play can connect with those around us and how, as modest as that might be, these connections can have a broader positive impact on the world. As an artist, what are your thoughts on the power and influence of art?

Marco: I could spend years trying to answer this question. Art should be the ultimate form of communication, capable of conveying a message that is universally understood across societies. However, the art market reveals how the evolution of investment and speculation has tainted this world, causing an increasing number of artists to drift away from meaningful concepts and messages, instead leaning toward purely decorative works with no deeper purpose.

FAQs

It looks so cool – but can you actually play a good game on it?

Absolutely! Our founder is a ping pong fanatic, so compromising on the game would never have been an option. The enjoyment of the gameplay had to match the quality of the art on the wall. We weren’t interested in creating a novelty product that we would soon become bored of.

Even though smaller than a standard table, they are super fun, competitive and energetic to play with. If you want to see them in action, you can download some videos here –

https://theartofpingpong.co.uk/pages/shared-media

Does it come ready to use?

Yes – you'll be playing as soon as you take it out of the box!

Each ArtTable comes pre-assembled and ready for instant use with its own solid net, two table tennis bats and four balls.

To hang your ArtTable on the wall, we provide our custom wall bracket that uses a ‘French Cleat’ system to hold it to the wall securely. It must be hung vertically; the French Cleat design will not work horizontally.

Screws and wall plugs are also provided, but as wall materials vary, please make sure you seek advice on suitable screws and wall plugs by contacting your local specialised dealer.

My order is urgent – can you speed up the production?

We absolutely love to find a way to ensure your dream of owning or gifting an ArtTable can come true.

If timing is critical, please do get in touch; we are a small team and, depending on our production timeline, can often improve timing when requested.
