So you have a 90 square foot apartment and 25,000 ping pong balls. It doesn't take long to come to the conclusion that they simply must be turned into something awesome. We're not sure we would have come up with it, but we're glad someone did! Check out the closet after the jump!
For Daniel Arsham, this ping pong ball apartment is home in Brooklyn, New York. The colors are cool and soothing and I'm pretty sure that as soon as anything sets foot inside its color becomes instantly attractive and its own artwork.
We ran across these photos from Fast Company who led us over to Snarkitecture, the architecture firm where Daniel works and coincidentally this apartment can be found (talk about an easy commute). Make sure to hop over and check out all the different angles around this space!
Could you live somewhere that tiny? What about that full of ping pong ball craziness? Would you slowly start drawing faces on them all or start squishing them randomly? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

All I can see is 25,000 dust collectors.
This is pretty amazing.
Also kind of looks like an asylum cell.
They reduce your usable square footage that much more.
Clockwork Orange feel. It's kind of futuristic cool. Thumbs up!
I forgive his craziness since he works somewhere with an ingenious name like Snarkitecture.
I love it... for one wall maybe!
Was a special exposure used on the photographs? Or is the palette truly that muted?
I love the texture it adds to the walls. The dust would probably end up annoying me eventually, though.
This is 90 square feet? I don't think I understand the angles we're looking at here. The ping pong balls look cool but they make me dizzy.
It looks like a cool boutique store or something, though.
I love how you enter the space, by climbing a ladder up from the men's room.
It looks very cool! Dusting would drive me crazy though :)
It's a really interesting idea. Not quite what I would want in my own home. I though the first photo was with a filter. That much desaturation is a bit disconcerting.
the color palette looks like something sucked the life out of the world. it's making my eyes bleed.
that said, very cool idea & I dig the small space.
Crazy-making. The lines aren't completely straight.
uhm, no.
well...at least those 90 square feet are sound proof.
As posted on gizmodo the other day, this is probably a really bad fire risk, I wouldn't recommend anyone else doing this in my opinion:-

Is anyone else getting tired of overly curated closets with six things in them? People need clothes, for Pete's sake.
oh, that looks scary. not for me. x shayma
Insane!!!
... and not in a good way.
Yeah, I don't think so...
This is so VERY Hildi Santo-Tomas!
