Discover the Innovative Ping-Pong Haven: Bounce Battersea Power Station's Game-Changing Design by The Shed Designers!
The ping-pong game
turned into design

Hi sports lovers!
Every interior embodies a story, whether it's a culture, an emotion, a location, or sometimes even a sport. Today, we introduce you to a brilliantly innovative space designed for the beloved game of ping-pong.
The new Bounce Battersea Power station arrived in August 2023 filled with fresh design concepts from the infamous Shed designers. A unique recipe for a competitive socialising space.
Being relics of the brutalist architecture of the 1950s, the interior design takes subtle nods from the distinctly industrial exteriors, to create an abstract world of ping pong in a no-nonsense sports hall.
The bold use of geometric patterns, colour blocking techniques and subtle references to the game, are unmistakeable throughout and put ping pong well and truly on the podium.
With cleverly designed elements that play on the instantly recognisable detail of ping pong’s bat and ball and the unmistakeable retro gymnasium-style lines of a ping pong court, the interiors provide the perfect backdrop.
Matt Smith, the co-founder and lead designer at Shed, states that central to the design was incorporating fun, playful elements that derive from ping pong’s chic parlour game origins.
The design elevated ping pong as a sport and all there is to love about it, and creates the ideal venue in one of London’s most prominent locations, for a brand that is the original home of ping pong.
As the former power station continues its transformation into a vibrant residential, commercial, and leisure space, the design of Bounce Battersea makes its mark in the area and provides a new home for the sport of ping pong.
In the end the Bounce Battersea venue elements make up the perfect heady mix for a good dose of healthy sporting competition whilst having fun with friends.
