The subject of the competition was the design for a set of Prague street furniture containing a bench with a backrest, a bench without a backrest, a large capacity trash can, a hanging trash can, and a bicycle stand.

Each proposed component should be usable both individually and in combination with other elements. Emphasis should be placed on the design relationship between the individual elements, their representativeness, and easy maintenance and management.

The elements were to be based on the Prague environment, its character and history. The street furniture was to be sufficiently representative for both important and regular public spaces. The elements will be placed both in street spaces and squares, as well as in parks mainly in the center and the wider center of Prague.
