Who We Are

To create sustainable, functional, and visually inspiring design and construction solutions that enhance the quality of life for our clients and communities.
Our Vision
To be an international leader in innovative and sustainable design, recognised for our exceptional creativity, technical expertise, and commitment to environmental responsibility. We aim to set new standards for professional practice in both the built environment and the digital realm.
Extraordinary Design
DerrickSteven Design (DSD) operates at the intersection of architecture, construction, branding and digital design. Since our founding in 2015, we have approached every project with a focus on structure, clarity, and intentionality. Our architectural background has taught us that every line must carry weight, every space must serve a function, and every decision must solve a problem.
In every project, we strive to create designs that not only fulfil their intended function but also tell a meaningful story. We consistently aim for WOW, achieving elegance through simplicity and thoughtful design. Based in Nairobi and working worldwide, DSD represents a new generation of African Design: one that is modern yet culturally grounded, minimal yet meaningful, international in perspective yet locally rooted.
Our Core Values
Our core values guide everything we do:
- Integrity: We uphold honesty, transparency, and ethical practices in all our projects, fostering trust with our clients and communities.
- Innovation: We continuously push the boundaries of design, embracing new ideas and technologies to create forward-thinking, sustainable solutions.
- Commitment to Excellence: We are dedicated to delivering exceptional quality in every project, ensuring functionality, aesthetic appeal, and long-term value for our clients.
