A house you can explore
OBST.CASA gives Mario’s projects a shared address without moving them out of their own websites. An illustrated house becomes the navigation: enter a workshop, a photo studio or a museum room and follow the story to the related project. The website is available in German and English.
Rooms instead of a long list
The house makes different interests easier to discover through places and objects. Photography belongs in a studio; earlier web work has a museum room. A house book provides a text-based way to explore alongside the illustrated rooms.
An extension for new curiosity
The first public design was deliberately a beginning, with details still to fill in. Room illustrations, personal texts and playful touches followed. On 31 October an extension added eight spaces, bringing the house to 22 places to explore.
Learning by making
The house connects past work, present projects and ideas still taking shape. It also records Mario’s own learning through trying things with AI: describing an intention, examining the result and refining it. The building can grow as the collection changes.
Who lives behind the project
Mario provides the direction and personal stories, reviews the result and retains editorial responsibility. Aik is his AI assistant, helping with writing, illustration, design and code. This November journal entry looks back at a house first built and published in September.
