Lo spazio dei libri architecture competition. Brainchild of festival president Antonella Ferrara and the architect and University of Palermo professor Giovanni Francesco Tuzzolino, the competition open to international architecture and engineering students regarded the creation of a small wooden reading pavilion in the magnificent central piazza of Taormina for the eleventh edition of the Taobuk literature festival (17-21 June 2021).
