Kurt Basford long dreamed of an opportunity to bring in-house architects, planners, landscape architects, and engineers together to collaborate on and deliver amazing projects. Kurt has made that dream a reality at Otak as Architecture Studio Lead.

With a desire to build a collaborative team environment where everyone is passionate about and has a voice in design, Kurt places an emphasis on the true multidisciplinary nature of Otak projects. It's a philosophy that's paired with entrepreneurial sprit, as Kurt has also established himself as a Chef and launched a sports apparel company, all of which he now applies to his diverse design work.
