With over 25 years of experience, DLVS has defined a clear niche at the intersection of design, marketing, and real estate brand development. Founded by Mark de Leeuw and Monique van Steenbergen and rooted in the fashion and lifestyle world, this background continues to inform the agency’s approach today:

Design-first, culturally attuned, and always aligned with how people live, work and connect. From intimate residential concepts to complex mixed-use environments, DLVS translates ambition into coherent brand narratives that strengthen both place and perception.

DLVS operates as a compact, strategically sharp collective. The team works closely with clients across the full spectrum — from concept development and brand strategy to carefully crafted communication and digital campaigns. In collaboration with a trusted network of specialists, each project is approached with depth, precision, and consistency.

Proudly based in Rotterdam, a no-nonsense, hardworking mentality with a positive outlook is ingrained in the DNA of the DLVS team.
