A playful shadow calculator for seven benches along Basel’s Kleinbasel Rhinebank, measuring remaining sunshine in Aperöli, Stange, and Zigi.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

SUNNESITE models shade for seven Basel Rhinebank benches from roof-height data and a 360-value horizon profile, then exposes the result through a time slider and playback view. Its units are deliberately local: one Aperöli represents 35 minutes of sunshine, while the walking calculation assumes 80 metres per minute with a full glass. The page also includes a partly field-researched drink-price table and identifies a future night-time companion, Schattekante.
