INSPIRING ENVIRONMENTS AT THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

TABLE TENNIS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2018

 

GOTESSONS WAS DELIGHTED to be asked to build the environments surrounding the 2018 World Team Table Tennis Championships, one of the year’s biggest sporting events in the Nordic Countries, with over 140 teams from 100 nations. It was a unique event, on which the Scandinavian design left its mark. 

At previous World Championships, it was normal for the areas where players, coaches and officials would spend their time between matches to meet only the basic requirements. They were not especially remarkable spaces. 

Gotessons is passionate about bringing more to the experience of the room and added an extra dimension to the lounges, turning them into trendy, sporty and relaxing environments and creating social areas where people could relax as well as recharge before the next match. 

The warm-up area received particular attention from the players thanks to the modern interior design, including artificial plants, Office Ballz, comfortable Office Nap and small sound-absorbing “houses” for sitting in when in need of a quiet moment away from the hustle and bustle.
