Iranian Architecture: A Hidden Treasure | Taraneh Yalda | TEDxUniversityofTehran

Shaping the architectural future based on the treasures from last generations.

Taraneh Yalda is an architecture graduate from Polytechnic University of Turin, and an urban planning post graduate from University of Paris. Her first working experience was directing the urban master planning of the ancient city of Susa in Khuzestan that was damaged in the war time. She also has done many writings in professional and nonprofessional press as an architecture and urban planning critic, with newspapers such as Hamshahri, Jame’e, Shargh, Etemad and magazines such as Memar, Memari-va-Sakhteman, etc. In the past years, her concern has been motivating different groups of citizens to preserve the historic and ancient areas, which are mostly defenseless. It’s been a year or two since she started dedicating her career to organizing events and conferences with the main goal of enhancing the quality of city life.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

About TEDx

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized. (Subject to certain rules and regulations.)
