Anyone who wants to spray-paint in peace is at the right place. The Sommercasino is a former club-house dating from the 19th century and is now a centre for young culture in Basel. It is used primarily for concerts and parties, and many rooms are also rented to young creative artists from the region. The graffiti on the building are striking – they cover the entire facade and are painted over at regular intervals. As the creative minds need only sign up at short notice and can then complete their works in peace, the motifs here are particularly impressive and sophisticated.
