Today, people tend to play solitarily in front of their TV or computer (or socially online but still physically alone). What happened to the times when everyone gathered together around a ping-pong or football table? It was social and active, (and it didn't use up any electricity). No need for a Wii video game.
For many years, the football table hasn't received a designer’s attention, while football stadiums have become incredibly involved and sculpturally beautiful. The classic football table no longer fits into modern interiors anymore. Enter "11," a collaboration of the two companies, "GRO design" and "Tim modelmakers." Their showcase football table (seen above) debuted at Milan Design Week last week.
