Light & built form

Nußdorfer Straße is densely and tall built — light falls narrow between the facades, and the lanes turn shady earlier in the day. Measured at the Grätzl centre: about 11.5 hours of direct sun on the longest day, about 2 in December. The low winter sun (only ~18° at noon in Vienna) mostly stays behind the rooftops here. In the evening the sun disappears early behind the buildings. How bright a single flat is comes down to floor, orientation and courtyard vs. street side — the measurement is for the Grätzl centre.
