Everybody look at the moon pt 2

Totally forgot to post this but I was looking into the kinds of materials that could be used to make this.





I first looked at concretes, polished, unpolished etc. because they have a decidedly moon like quality. However if we are going to be having these as posts/ bollards they are going to be really heavy and depending on what the end product is that could be a real issue. However I really like the look. 






Next I looked into different kinds of metals with different levels of reflective qualities, because reflection was another thing we were quite interested in about this moon subject. Another material that could end up weighing a lot though. I guess it depends on what you go with and how thick it is though. Personally still prefer the look of the concrete though. 








Next I looked into different kinds of translucent materials and the different level of control you can have with it and how light actually effects it night and day. From glass to acrylic, however it has to be strong enough to hold up the weight of a bunch of humans.
