Place story
It is a mediated open space that supports the creation of artists and communication between artists and citizens. The Artist's House is a building that was used as the main building of Gyeongseong Imperial University during the Japanese colonial period and was designated as Historic Site No. 278. It was designed by Park Gil-ryong (1898-1943), a pioneer in Korean architecture. It was used as the headquarters of the Korea Arts Council and was converted into an artist's home in December 2010. Currently, the first floor is the Arko Young Artiststrap for young artists, the second floor is the Artist's House Lounge where anyone can come and rest and experience drip coffee, and the third floor is a rental space for art creation.

예술가의 창작을 지원하고 예술가와 예술가, 예술가와 시민과의 소통을 지원하는 매개형 열린 공간이다. 예술가의 집은 일제강점기에 경성제국대학 본관으로 사용됐던 건물로 사적 278호로 지정되었으며 설계는 우리 건축계의 선구자인 박길룡(1898~1943)이 하였다. 한국문화예술위원회의 청사로 사용되다가 2010년 12월 예술가의 집으로 바뀌었다. 현재 1층은 청년예술가를 위한 아르코영아티스트랩, 2층은 누구나 와서 쉴 수 있고 드립커피 체험을 할 수 있는 예술가의집 라운지, 3층은 예술 창작을 위한 대관공간으로 이루어져 있다.
