The mayors of the municipalities are approaching the schools of architecture to develop studies to promote rural tourism. They expect the students to come up with creative new ideas that will attract tourists and improve the public space in the village, thus contributing to the quality of life of local residents. The article deals with the benefits of cooperation between the FA BUT and municipal governments and presents, as an example, a student project to promote tourism in the municipality of Tvarožná Lhota.
