Can-Struction

cangroup

Wilson Architects was recently lucky enough to be part of the Asheville Can-Struction.  www.canstruction.com

We teamed up with the Buncombe County Early College to help collect cans for the local Mana Food Bank.  Before the cans were donated, we competed with other local teams to build a structure out of the cans.

We were pleased to receive the judges choice award for our rendition of the Emerald City from the Wizard of Oz.
