Annickids
Artistic awakening workshop



Introduction



Children's living space
Annickids-team is a painting and art studio located in a new eco-district, semi-pedestrian, in the heart of Erlenmatt.
The loft occupies a large walk-through area, glazed on two sides and specially designed to accommodate children.
The particularity of this place allows us to live in an urban as well as a rural environment; we are in the heart of the city of Basel, while enjoying a very present nature with our direct access through the terrace and the garden to the playgrounds and the Lange Erlen parks.
Kilometers of walking paths between rivers and forests. Public transportation and Bad Banhof are nearby.
