1) Quadra Fire Cube, $32.00 value
A Fu-Tung Cheng Signature Design


Part modern and part rustic, the Quadra Concrete Fire Cube was expressly designed by Fu-Tung Cheng to rekindle the nostalgia of gathering around a wood-burning campfire. Fu-Tung conceptualized the design of the Quadra Fire Cube to meet three key objectives for the user:

  • Make the project approachable to build, utilizing one form to make two concrete pieces;
  • Provide an experience that balances between the polished surface of concrete and the earthy materials of lava rock, iron and wood;
  • Be a semi-permanent installation, allowing the homeowner to move the fire pit at any time to any location.
The Quadra Fire Cube provides mass appeal with dimensions of 48”W x 58”L. Utilizing CHENG D-FRC mixes, the finished Quadra Fire Cube is 1" thick with each half only weighing 150 lbs., making it easily moveable any place within your backyard or from one home to the next. Whether a front or back yard, the Quadra Fire Cube feels right at home. Whether you're using a restaurant-sized wok to contain a wood-burning fire, cooking with charcoal on an old grill, or plumbing in a gas or alcohol burner, the Quadra Fire Cube is flexible enough to fit your needs.

The Quadra Fire Cube How-to Instructional Project Drawings include 12 pages of clearly illustrated step-by-step instructions detailing form construction, techniques for hand-packing D-FRC, and tips on de-molding, finishing, and installing. Drawings also include a full list of materials and supplies required to complete the project.

2) Rhomba Bench, $32.00 value
A Fu-Tung Cheng Signature Design

The Rhomba Bench was designed by Fu-Tung Cheng to create a beautifully simple aesthetic for a high-functioning piece of furniture for your outdoor living space. Fu-Tung conceptualized the Rhomba Bench to meet three key objectives for the user:
  • Make the project approachable to build, utilizing one form to make two concrete pieces while creating a distinctive, interlocking design;
  • Create a functional piece of furniture that balances the polished surface of concrete and the warm look and feel of wood;
  • Be a semi-permanent, lightweight installation, allowing the user to move the bench at any time to any location including elevated environments.
Because Rhomba Bench is made with NeoMix D-FRC, it is lightweight at only 175 lbs. making it ideal for any location including urban, rooftop environments where weight is a structural concern. With the Rhomba Bench design and drawings, you can make your bench in any color with any species of wood you desire and you can pair it with a Quadra Fire Cube, also a Fu-Tung Cheng Signature Design, to create a focal point for your outdoor living space. Create a statement feature for your home, commercial space, maybe a patio or deck of a restaurant, or even a rooftop environment—the Rhomba Bench is beautiful, functional, and can be mobile to meet your location needs.

The Rhomba Bench How-to Project Drawings include 12 pages of clearly illustrated step-by-step instructions detailing form construction, techniques for hand-packing D-FRC, and tips on de-molding, finishing, and installing. Drawings also include a full list of materials and supplies required to complete the project.

• Front walkway
• Indoor entryway

4) Grayson Al Fresco BBQ Island, $22.00 value 
Outdoor Living at its Hottest


The Grayson Al Fresco Barbecue Island is an ideal solution that combines concrete’s sleek style with an inset barbecue unit for small scale grilling. Ideas for using the Grayson Al Fresco Barbecue Island include:
  • Use as a contemporary addition to any small scale backyard as it doubles as a counter-height concrete dining table
  • It can be a companion prep surface for an existing, larger grill unit and also offers additional grill space—while the steaks and burgers are on a large barbecue, perhaps vegetables or kabobs are grilling on the Grayson Al Fresco Barbecue Island
  • For large events, the concrete island can be a buffet service station where cooked items are kept warm on the small grill while guests serve themselves
  • Turn the island into a self-serve concrete bar area by switching out the grill unit for an ice bucket, or vessel, to cool drinks
With more than 12 square feet of open concrete countertop surface and a space for a "built in" grill unit, the versatile island will make your outdoor experience even hotter!

Grayson Al Fresco Barbecue Island Drawings include 29 pages of clearly illustrated step-by-step instructions detailing mold construction, reinforcing assembly and concrete mixing. Drawings also include complete lists of materials required to make the project. The island is designed for use with a 14.5" Weber® Smokey Joe Grill.

Stinson Fire Table Drawings include 22 pages of clearly illustrated step-by-step instructions detailing mold construction, reinforcing assembly, concrete mixing, pouring and finishing.
