How To Design An Art Studio To Your Liking



Becoming an independent artist can have you face a big dilemma when it comes to your workplace. It wouldn’t be a good idea to just use the extra space in your living room for your canvases and easels, and this issue of space will make you think about two things. First of all, where will your art studio be? Second, how can you design it in a way that suits your needs? Once you decide on the location of your studio, you can start sketching your sacred sanctuary’s design, where all your art will come to life. If you want to design your art studio to your liking, you need to consider the following:

Check the Power Supply
After you have chosen the space for your art studio, you need to make sure that it’s all set in all areas. First things first, you need to check the power supply and whether electricity is stable in your chosen location. Additionally, you need to back yourself up with an electric generator that is suitable for your studio’s specifications. The manufacturers at Krugerpower suggest shopping for a generator that is small in size, portable, and efficient for open spaces whether big or small. Having these three features is ideal for your art studio since you don’t want to waste the space dedicated to your beautiful art on a huge device. So, in case the lights go out while you’re working, the generator will back you up and your art time won’t get interrupted.

Light Up the Place
Lighting can be very magical and can improve a person’s creativity and productivity. When designing your art studio, focus on how to let in enough sunlight for a more creative-looking space. Glass doors and floor-to-ceiling windows can guarantee you the magical effect of daylight. That said, double sliding doors along with sidelights can also provide you with strong lighting. These are simply walls made of glass that give you a glimpse of the outside world. In addition, they are wide enough for your furniture to pass through them. If your art studio is in a basement or in your garage, you can opt for skylights instead to let natural light into your space.

Paint Your Walls with Light Colors
Dark colors make a room seem smaller than it actually is because they absorb light. On the contrary, light colors reflect light throughout the room and thus change your perception of the space, making you feel that the room is bigger than it is. Choosing light colors will help you out with your art studio design if you have a small floor area. So, consider a light color palette when painting your walls for a more relaxing space.

Add a Mini Kitchenette
Even though you won’t be living in your art studio, you will need a small corner to make yourself a nice cup of coffee, or a sink to wash your art utensils. Making yourself a mini kitchenette in your art studio can help you save the time that you would spend moving between rooms. Choose a nice and cozy spot for your mini kitchenette and set up a coffee corner around it. Most importantly, do not forget to install a proper plumbing system to avoid any flooding situations.

Design Your Windows in the North-West Direction
Placing your windows in the north-west direction can be very inspiring to you while you work on your art. This is because this direction captures a good view of the sunset, which is as inspirational to artists as it is beautiful. Moreover, according to some studies on psychology, artists tend to create more impressive artworks during the evenings. They get inspired by the warm colors of the sunset and thus express it in a vibrant color palette. Thus, if you place your windows in the north-west direction, you will make your art studio’s design more functional and productive.

Ventilate Properly
An efficient design is one that has a proper ventilation system. You need to place your windows in the direction of the wind. You can also place your windows opposite each other or in front of the door for a cross-ventilation effect. Additionally, you can use sliding windows for better air circulation in your studio. These design tips are very simple, but can drastically enhance your studio’s ventilation.



Your art studio design should come naturally since you are an artist. When designing the space where your art will come to life, you need to take advantage of your artistic eye. Your sense of creativity will help you know what you need in your studio and how you want it to look. In addition, give yourself the chance to get inspired by different designs before you settle on the one that you prefer.
