Raleigh, NC, October 18, 2005 --(PR.com)-- Jeff Davis, President of JDavis Architects, PLLC, a full-service architecture, landscape architecture and interior design firm, has announced that the company will be participating in a national “Canstruction” design/build competition with proceeds to benefit the Food Bank of North Carolina. Canstruction is a unique competition where competing teams, lead by architects and engineers, showcase their talents by designing giant sculptures made entirely out of canned foods. JDavis Architects are currently seeking corporate and individual sponsors to help fund their project – to construct a pair of urban “Canstruction” boots made from 3,000 cans of food. Sponsors’ names will be listed in the official Canstruction program and displayed alongside the JDavis sculpture throughout the duration of the exhibit. The competition will take place at Raleigh’s Exploris Museum on October 23rd and 24th, and the “canscupltures” will be open to public viewing until January 8th.

“Canstruction plays a vital role in helping to meet the provisional needs of the hurricane survivors who have been relocated to the Triangle, as well as our own local residents,” said Davis. “Our company is proud to participate in a competition that helps raise money for Food Bank of North Carolina.”
