Story Tower The Story Tower is an open–air reading room and book exchange shelf in the main transport hub of Cesis. It was developed in collaboration with Cesis Central library, bringing one of its functions out in the public. The landmark exemplifies the individual effort of new arrivers and old survivors — those are stories that inspire. The 5–meter tall wooden structure with a paper composite (Tetrapak) roof, which protects from weather conditions, was designed and built during the RTU International Summer School Local Shift.
