Casablanca & Butterfly Link For A $ 25,000 Memphis Design-Inspired Table Tennis Set-Up

While a rock-solid table tennis table might be the single best addition to any workplace or share house, it’s not unreasonable to say that now the tables look pretty boring, despite the significant surface area on offer. Well, the folks at Casablanca have considered exactly the same thing, linking up with a table tennis equipment manufacturer Butterfly to create a table that not only does its job of providing a playing area for the game, but also looks absolutely sensational.

It makes sense when you think about Casablanca’s penchant for romanticizing the Glamorous elements of leisure sports, from its recent Collaboration with New Balance to create a range of XC-72s inspired by vintage sports cars, to the chic collection of Casablanca’s Ski Club winterwear. Perhaps with the exception of Gucci and its latest Collaboration, Casablanca is single-handedly Flying the flag for retro-inspired sporty garments that look as good as they are supremely comfortable.

This Whimsical table tennis table finds inspiration in Casablanca founder Charaf Tajer’s Memories of visiting Japan, while also drawing on the creative force that was the Memphis design movement. Just as Casablanca loves pastel hues, the Ettore Sottsass-founded Italian design and architecture collective also had an enduring love for brightly colored tones.

The Casablanca and Butterfly table tennis table will only be available via a limited number of channels, one of which is the Japanese retailer GR8. As this Spectacular table deserves, it received the complete Tarantino treatment with GR8 producing a high-value teaser video featuring table tennis players Jun Mizutani and Maharu Yoshimura.

The Casablanca x Butterfly Table Tennis Table has an RRP of ¥ 2,420,000 (AU $ 25,685), while just the Racket Set will set you back ¥ 62,700 (AU $ 665). Sure, it’s not cheap, but have you ever seen such a good-looking table tennis table?
