Marcus Otten

Designer

With over 25 years of experience in kitchen design, Marcus brings a deep understanding and a highly adaptable approach to every project. Marcus found his way into the design industry through organic evolution as he worked alongside his father and brothers in construction, then progressing into a skilled stone fabricator, home remodeler, cabinetry installer, CAD drafter, and project manager. Drawing on his vast experience in the construction and design industry, Marcus intimately understands every aspect of kitchen design, from concept to completion. Since joining the team at EKD, he has further honed his skills by working with his mentor and brother, Mikal Otten (lead designer and owner – Exquisite Kitchen Design), and collaborating closely with leading industry designers and architects.

Marcus’s clients appreciate his engaging and versatile approach to design coupled with his exceptional ability to solve problems spontaneously. He is adaptable to any design aesthetic, innovative in his work, and passionate about standing out from the conventional – a true hallmark of his work. A true believer in “Everything is possible with the right tools at the right time,” Marcus approaches each design project with authenticity, a refined taste for clean lines and modern design, ultimately creating spaces that are beautiful, unique and timeless.

His exceptional work has earned him recognition in 2021 for Colorado Homes and Lifestyle’s Five Under Forty & awards and features in publications like Architectural Digest, Colorado Homes and Lifestyle, Denver Life and 5280 magazines. When he’s not designing, you can find him exploring new cultures and traveling the world with his family.
