The Society of Polish Town Planners has announced the 18th edition of the competition for the best developed public space in Poland.

The aim of the "Competition of the Society of Polish Town Planners for the Best Developed Public Space in Poland" is to select the best examples of publicly accessible spaces of high social value, revitalizing historic buildings, restoring the cultural identity of places or protecting natural and landscape values. In judging the works, the Jury will take into account utilitarian, aesthetic and emotional issues of the presented realizations, as well as the ways in which European, national or local government funds were used to complete them.

The scope of the categories in which prizes will be awarded will be determined at the first meeting of the Competition Jury.

terms and conditions

The competition is a two-stage, open competition, and applications can be sent by public and private entities, as well as social organizations.

The objects of the "Competition of the Society of Polish Town Planners for the Best Developed Public Space in Poland" are public spaces understood as areas with clearly defined boundaries, affecting the surroundings at least on the scale of a neighborhood or district, and adapted for use by representatives of various social groups.

Not eligible for the competition are mono-functional projects, such as swimming pools, playgrounds or sports fields, as well as facilities that are available for a fee and only during designated hours.

The competition is also open to projects that improve the operation of already existing public spaces - signage systems, small architecture or laws that organize the urban landscape.

Entry to the competition is free of charge, and the number of proposals submitted by one entity is not limited.
