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.
