   ABSTRACT: I will discuss the construction of (fractal) sets in metric
   spaces and visit the following topics: (1) Separation conditions for
   self-similar mappings in metric spaces. In particular the open set
   condition and requirements that accompany it. (2) An approach to study
   set constructions in metric spaces which, for example, do not support
   any non-trivial similitude mappings. (3) The simple and yet powerful
   idea of mixing self-similar constructions. Some examples in Carnot
   groups will be given.
