The best part about small spaces is the creativity that comes from being resourceful with a small amount of square footage. We ran across this fold down ping-pong table in a door and thought it was a great way to work in a game, with a floor plan that wouldn't normally allow it. Now it makes us wonder, what else could we use a table of this manner for? Leave us your thoughts after the jump...
No Space For A Rec Room? Try This!
We can't help but be ridiculously entertained by this fantastic use of space brought to you by Tobias Franzel. We weren't the only ones and what started as a simple concept is being put into production. The only downfall we can see is that while one side of your door will stay the same in appearance, the other side is bright green, although no one said a ping pong table HAD to be green!
We could see this working wonders for a home office when a longer project is at hand. Or maybe we could use it simply for a fold down art table or train table for our little ones. What could you use the space for? Leave us a comment below!

I think the table in a door is an awesome idea. My daughter's favorite color is green. So in her eyes ther color is an additional selling feature.
A similar ideas was shown on an episode of "Monster House; Medieval Castle," where there was no real room for a dining room table, so they made a hole large in the wall look like a draw bridge coming down and people sat on either side of the wall and flanked either side of the table, seating 8 to 10.
I like this idea better. My wall space in my home is at such a premium I do not have enough places to store and display things.
-Well done.

I love this idea! I think you could do this with a closet door to make a compact changing table. Just make the top half fold down or the bottom half fold up.
