A personal favorite from ICFF, James DeWulf’s Ping Pong Dining Table strikes a sophisticated pose even if formed in rugged concrete. “Made to regulation size, the Ping Pong table dimensions are 9’ by 5’ by 30”. The new dining table can actually be used for Ping Pong with acid etched lines that will last as long as the table and a smooth surface that provides a great “bounce”.  The table is also ideal for outdoor use because the components are impervious to moisture, salt air and freeze thaw cycles. Many still expressed a preference to use the table indoors because of its clean, simple, and beautiful lines.”

Appropriate both in and outside the house.

Another look after the jump.

Creo Concrete Studio began as a collaborative effort between Maysun Wells and Eric Green. The two Californian’s understand well the inherent potential of concrete to produce beautiful forms. Their outdoor furniture, inlayed with cut glass or ammonite, is far cry from Brutalism. The chairs, tables, fire pits, and benches take soft, warm form, with an emphasis on curve and geometric shapes. (via Contemporist).
