Developing Our Identities in Buildings for Myanmar
Zaw Lin Myat | TEDxYangon
What are quintessential Myanmar design characteristics? What should they be in the future? Myanmar architect Zaw Lin Myat takes us on a delightful visual journey to explore how he builds a Myanmar identity in his work. He challenges us to question and imagine how Myanmar design can create happiness, sustainability and togetherness in today's world where global influences are huge and resources are scarce. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
