London-based Studio Furthermore's Moon Rock collection is made from aluminium but designed to look like it is formed from materials mined in outer space.
Each of the metal Moon Rock objects features a unique pattern of holes that is unrepeatable, making every piece a one-off. The collection includes tables of various sizes as well as stools and lighting.
The studio describes the material as a rock from the moon that has been carved by hand to reveal formations of a "metal-rich lunar mineral ore" that has been brought back to earth thanks to the expansion of space travel in an imagined near future.

Some of the edges are left "raw" while others are shaped into curved surfaces or cut into straight lines. Thin slabs of the material provide flat surfaces for seating and tabletops. "We're projecting ourselves maybe five or 10 years into the future when it becomes possible to source material from the moon and from other places," studio co-founder Iain Howlett told Dezeen. "We're imagining how designers will start to work with these new materials."

The speculative project is a response to the current focus on material scarcity after a century of abundance.
"We're also thinking about the shift in culture," said Howlett. "That we go from having to be very careful about material use at the moment and [feeling] quite pessimistic, to a future that we could be optimistic about, if we make the right decisions now."
