Creative Design x Sports: Cynthia Mak creates colorful ping pong sets

In this project, she designed a series of hand-painted ping pong sets for PMQ to showcase her iconic bold and colorful geometric style, including hand-painted ping pong tables, rackets, scoreboard, and uniquely styled chairs, creating a vibrant and colorful ping pong paradise. The ping pong tables will be on display and open for use at PMQ Marketplace. Visitors can borrow table tennis rackets for free at the Info Centre, with a suggested game time of 15 minutes.

In addition to the colourful ping pong tables, the Courtyard features a large inflatable ping pong ball installation that is full of playful elements. The colours of balloons inside the giant ball are inspired by Cynthia’s colour scheme, with vibrant hues that not only echo her creative theme but also inject abundant energy into the venue. The installation stands at 2.4 meters tall. As night falls, the lights surrounding the installation grow, resembling a lively full moon from a distance, adorning PMQ.
