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.

THE ACADEMY

How you can learn

Four ways to learn here. Pick the one that fits the week you're having.

Webinars

free

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

Courses

ENTRY

Self-paced programs you keep. Lifetime access, structured modules, and the kind of brief that makes you finish them.

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 & Teams

PREMIUM

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

“Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”

NEXT LIVE EVENT

Coming up this week

AI for designers, without losing the craft

Webinar

AI isn't coming for design — it's already here, and most designers are using it badly or not at all. The risk isn't being replaced; it's slowly losing the taste, judgment, and fundamentals that make design worth paying for, while colleagues who learned to work with AI pull ahead.

This hour is for designers who want to start, properly. Not a hype tour, not a doom lecture — a working session on how.
