MJ Long is an architect, interior designer and a visiting critic at Yale University’s School of Architecture, and since 1976, she has designed a number of purpose-built artists’ studios. A recently released book from Black Dog Publishing called 'Artists’ Studios' explores some of these key projects, providing a personal insight into the creative minds behind the working spaces...

The studios profiled include those of Sir Peter Blake, RB Kitaj, Paul Huxley and Frank Auerbach, amongst others, and looks upon the relationship between artist and studio and the designs of MJ Long from her perspective. The book is organised around each studio she has been involved with, detailing the conception of the project and the specific needs of the artists.

Artists’ Studios provides the reader with a unique insight into a very special collaborative practice between architect and artist, in addition to providing a glimpse into never before seen interiors of the artists’ working and living environments.
