STUDIO - ACADEMY - Berlin

Where design practice meets 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.

Make AI Follow Your Design System in Figma Make

FREe SESSION

AI can generate a prototype quickly, but keeping it consistent with your design system takes clear direction. In this session, I’ll show how I turn design rules, component guidance and visual references into useful context for Figma Make. We’ll improve one feature together and check where the result still needs a designer’s judgment.
