concave ping pong table by ron arad is designed to make rallies longer

10 LAYERS — a ping pong table designed by ron arad — was sculpted to slow the game down and make rallies longer. arad used 10 silestone quartz surfacing slabs to create the table. among these grayscale slabs: stilestone’s iconic white, kensho, cemento spa, and negro tebas. thanks to these layered stones and CNC milling, the ping pong table is curved in all directions.

‘the idea for 10 LAYERS came to me while visiting the extraordinary plant of cosentino,’ arad says. ‘when you look at the state of the art production of dekton® and silestone®, although you are there for a completely different purpose, you can’t help but think ‘what else can we do with this magical material? we want to do something where we enjoy the material in a different way’.
