    Architectural Porosity: Reading the Change of Inhabitation in Urban Heritage Area
    (Selçuk Üniversitesi, 06.05.2024) Saginatari, Diandra; Hale, Jonathan; Collett, Tim
    This paper explores the idea of architectural porosity, which intends to see the material and sociospatial porosity of the built material as a conceptual framework of architectural inquiry that can be utilised to unfold architectural phenomena in different contexts. Therefore, this paper is exploratory, and the exploration intends to unfold architectural phenomena in the context of a revitalised urban heritage area. Urban heritage areas are prone to changes through regeneration or revitalisation projects. The changes result not only in physical change but within the social, economic, and cultural aspects. By addressing the dynamic, complex, and interrelated changes in the urban heritage context, the exploration in this paper is guided by an overarching question: What will architectural porosity unfold in terms of the change of inhabitation in a revitalised urban heritage area? This question will be explored by utilising the idea of assemblage thinking as a qualitative methodological approach to read an empirical case of Semarang Old Town, Indonesia, as a revitalised urban heritage area. The exploration shows that architectural porosity unfolds the relation and entanglement between material and socio-spatial porosities in the change of inhabitation in Semarang Old Town. Furthermore, architectural porosity, as architectural inquiry, could be one of the ways of approaching urban heritage context that unfolds the possibility of incorporating natural ecological cycles of plants, decay, and informal inhabitation, which are usually denied by the conventional revitalisation practice, as alternative voices in the discussion of urban heritage revitalisation.
