History of SDSI – Super Yacht Interior Engineers

Our company ‘Van Dongen SDSI” was launched in 1997. The SDSI brand stands for Support, Design, Styling and Illustration. Founder Erik van Dongen’s education is in naval architecture. He started his career at Hoek Design in the early 1990’s. SDSI’s first assignment was a multi-disciplinary project that included sail plans, engine systems, deck arrangements, rigging configurations and interiors.

SDSI’s services eventually evolved into engineering specialising in Super Yachts Interiors. SDSI has grown out to a full-service interior yacht engineering studio. A dedicated crew of 17 professionals strive to excel in their job.

Future vision of SDSI

SDSI is growing and exploring new territories. While listening to our client’s needs, we constantly innovate and think beyond boundaries, exploring new possibilities. Keeping in mind costs and technical aspects.
