The project used contemporary public art to engage citizens with the history of Stara Zagora and to raise awareness about the future of its public spaces.

Czech designer Tomáš Starý created a mural that reflects the city's historical layers, its contemporary urban structure, and a shared vision for sustainable mobility. The artwork highlights the fact that Stara Zagora's street network was designed at the end of the 19th century by Czech architect Libor Bayer, at a time when automobile transport did not yet exist. This historical perspective invites the public to reflect on how cities evolve and how urban planning can respond to present-day challenges. By placing the artwork in public space, the project encouraged residents and visitors to explore its meaning and initiated discussion about cycling infrastructure, sustainable mobility, and the broader role of architecture and design in shaping more liveable cities.  

The format proved successful in engaging a diverse range of participants, particularly children, young people, and students from the city's School of Architecture. Through participatory workshops, participants actively mapped potential pedestrian zones and cycling routes, contributing their own ideas for the future development of the city.
The project also brought together local stakeholders, including the city's cycling club, to discuss sustainable urban mobility. Importantly, the outcomes of these discussions and the alternative maps created during the workshop will be presented to the Mayor of Stara Zagora and local architects, extending public participation into the city's urban planning process.
