Five Teams Recognized as Award Winners of CANstruction San Diego Design-Build Competition and Food Drive

  

 SAN DIEGO, CA – They came in all colors, themes, shapes and sizes, but the winning entries of this year’s CANstruction San Diego competition all had one thing in common: creative ingenuity. 

 McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. (www.mccarthy.com), RJC Architects (www.rjcarch.com), IBI Group (www.ibigroup.com), Kearny Mesa High Construction Tech Academy, and Crawford High School – IDEA came together to compete in this annual design-build competition, sponsored the Society for Design Administration, an affiliate of the American Institute of Architects.

Each team of 10 was tasked with collecting donations of canned goods, devising a design, and creating huge works of sculptural art made entirely out of canned goods.

Close to 50,000 cans of food, weighing approximately 40,000 pounds, were used to create the structures, some as much as eight feet tall and ten feet wide.
