可以想成 studio 是一個專門留給某種創作工作的房間——畫家、音樂人、表演者進到這個空間裡去做作品或練習。整個房間是圍著裡頭發生的那件工作打造的：器材、空間、安靜……一切都安排好，讓創作能在這裡進行。From the word’s history
From Italian studio 'room for study', from Latin studium 'eagerness, painstaking application, study'. The core picture — a room dedicated to focused, painstaking work — comes straight from that root.
源自義大利文 studio（書房、研習的房間），再上溯拉丁文 studium（熱切的投入、用功）。「一個專門用來專注、用心工作的房間」這個核心畫面，正是從這個字根來的。
