Austrian designer Robert Stadler has designed a range of furniture based on volcanic explosions.

The series, entitled Tephra Formations, includes seating, an armchair, pouf and low table. The name ‘Tephra’ is derived from the Greek for ‘ash’, while ‘bomb’ is the term used for volcanic eruptions that emerge in a partially melted state. The project is a continuation of an earlier work by Stadler called Pools & Pouf!, which was shown at the Carpenters Workshop Galleryin London as part of an exhibition called Bifurcations last year
