Albert Engström's studio, Artist museum and studio in Grisslehamn, Sweden.

Albert Engström's studio is a single wooden building on a rocky outcrop near the sea outside Grisslehamn, completed in 1907. It has white-painted vertical plank walls, a pitched roof of reddish-orange clay tiles with a row of white brackets under the eaves, and six windows in a row on the front facade. The south and west facades are painted with Falu red, while the east and north sides are white to serve as a sea mark.

Albert Engström drew the studio himself with help from his pupil Carl Hagsten; it was finished in 1907 on a cliff by the sea outside Grisslehamn, less than half a kilometre from his home. He worked there until his death in 1940, and the interior has been left untouched since. The building has been a listed building monument since 1975 and is cared for by the Albert Engström Society.

The building is cared for by the Albert Engström Society, which keeps the studio as it was left at his death in 1940. The white paint on the east and north facades was chosen so the house would work as a seamark for boats, a function still visible today.

The studio stands on a rock by the sea outside Grisslehamn, less than half a kilometre from Albert Engström's home, so it is reached on foot along the shore. The building is cared for by the Albert Engström Society and has been left untouched since 1940, so visitors view the exterior and setting rather than furnished rooms.

The white side of the studio served ships on the sea as a navigation landmark and was long an important marker for vessels moving through this region. This practical function made the building into more than just an art location.
