Ping Pong Door: Opening the Door to Space-Efficient Table Tennis

For all of you who think that your homes are too small or too cluttered for tabletop games, we present the Ping Pong Door. That's right -- it's a functioning door, and when a game of table tennis calls your name, an inner panel folds out of the door; add your own net and paddles and it's game time. You just need two adjacent rooms with enough free space to play.

The caveat, if you want to stay traditional, is that one side of the door is bright green with a white stripe down the middle. A little odd, for sure, but might be worth it for a little space-friendly pong whenever the spirit moves you. This could be a fun project for you dedicated DIYers; for the less handy, contact ::Tobias Fraenzel via ::Yanko Design

    Can I close the door on the person if I lose a round?

    Actually, the green half could be a playful touch for a den or game room. Or you could always just pretend you're playing on a clay table tennis court and go for a more neutral color.
