STUDIO - ACADEMY - Berlin

The craft of Design.
Made and taught, in the age of AI.

House of Maestro is a studio and an academy in Berlin.
It's where we teach what we've learned about design — and where we keep figuring out what AI changes about the work.

How Product Designers Actually Work with AI in 2026

FREe SESSION

This session gives you the complete map before going deeper into individual tools.

THE ACADEMY

Learn at the depth you need.

Three ways to learn here. Start free, go deeper when work asks for it.

Webinars

free

Live, sixty minutes, every month. A new topic each time. Replays go to subscribers within a day.

Workshops

DEEP

One to two days online or in person, in Berlin. Small cohorts, real work shipped by the end, and a room you'll want to come back to.

1:1 & Coaching

PREMIUM

Direct work, with me. Coaching for solo designers finding their way through AI, and small programs for in-house teams doing the same.

THE sTUDIO

From first idea to a system that grows

We help brands and teams turn ambitious work into clear, considered design.

Brand Identity

from idea to identity

Build a distinctive visual foundation - a logo, colour, type, and direction that makes your brand feel unmistakably yours.

Digital presence

From screen to site

Create a digital home that does the work: landing pages, websites, and Webflow builds designed to look sharp and move people to act.

Design Systems

Built to scale

Bring order to growing products with foundations, components, and documentation that help design and development move as one.
