Joshua Steffen, Principal and Owner
Josh started SSDBUILD in 2009 to provide modern sustainable residential design/build services. Growing up in a residential contractor family, Josh's father taught him residential construction, fine woodworking and carpentry, and also, great work ethic. Josh earned a Bachelor's of Science in Architectural Studies from the University of Illinois in 2008. After working for a commercial architectural design/build firm for 8 months, Josh moved to the Quincy, IL area. Josh worked as a lead designer and project manager for a major Quincy, IL architectural firm for 3 years before making SSDBUILD a full-time endeavor in 2012. His favorite styles of residential architecture include mountain modern and northwest modern, however, he has a vast knowledge of all other residential architectural styles as well. His love of timbers and fine details show in his designs. Josh loves spending as much time as possible with his wife Colby and four kids. He also enjoys coaching youth sports and an occasional game of golf. Josh is a member of the Taylor Apostolic Christian Church.
