Porous City - From Metaphor to Urban Agenda (Hardcover)

Some time ago, Walter Benjamin and Asja Lacis used the term
"porosity" with reference to Naples' urban characteristics - spaces
merging into each other and providing the backdrop for the
unforeseen - improvisation as a way of life. Today, the term
"porosity" in this context is increasingly used conceptually.
Well-known authors from the worlds of architecture, town planning,
and landscape design embark on a search for new concepts for a
life-enhancing, user-friendly city - with reference to this
enigmatic term. The term refers to the overlaying and interweaving
of spaces and structures, to urban textures and their architectural
properties and qualities - to cities with radically mixed urban
functions.
