Designer Gavin Keightley used foods including mashed potato and jelly to create moulds for this furniture collection, which is cast from Jesmonite dyed in fluorescent hues.
The furniture collection, comprising two cabinets and a series of stools, features components made from plaster and Jesmonite that were cast in moulds fabricated from different foods.
University of Plymouth graduate Keightley told Dezeen that, throughout his studies, he enjoyed exploring alternative applications for materials and processes.

This culminated in an attempt to identify a new and more sustainable way of moulding materials.
"I do a lot of casting which means I need moulds to cast into," he explained. "A lot of the mould materials on the market are synthetic so I began hunting for a natural alternative that would do what I wanted it to." One night during his student years, a failed attempt to cook a bowl of couscous resulted in a hardened mass that retained its shape when removed from the bowl.
Keightley realised that couscous and other foodstuffs could be used as a moulding material with unique properties that are expressed in the details of the resulting surfaces.
"I was inspired to take the label of food away from the material and explore food for all of its properties, not just the fact that we can eat it," he said. "That opened up a whole library of materials that are otherwise undervalued and underused."
