Chris Belanger, Architect.
Co-founder of Belanger, Paul & Cutone.

Chris Belanger has been designing homes since graduating from the University of Massachusetts in 1993. Prior to coming to Nantucket in 1996, he designed homes, banks, and commercial interiors for an interior design and architecture firm in Baltimore, MD. Chris managed a wide variety of residential projects before forming his own firm in 2000. With partners Joe Paul and Mark Cutone, he’s now a principle of Belanger, Paul, & Cutone Architecture.

Joe Paul
Co-founder of Belanger, Paul & Cutone.

Joe Paul’s interest in the built environment began as a young boy in the woods of western Massachusetts, where he and his brother spent countless hours constructing lean-to’s, tree houses, and other various structures. This drive to create shelter eventually led to an architecture degree from Syracuse University and desire to help others achieve their vision of home. While attending college, Joe worked with the architect that originally opened his eyes to the career of Architecture way back in elementary school. He apprenticed with the founder of the NACUL center where he learned about the synthesis of Nature and Culture into architectural form. Joe’s interest in natural materials and domestic architecture led him to Nantucket seven years ago, where he enjoys meeting the contemporary needs of his clients while being sensitive to the local context. In his free time, he makes fun of bad architecture, visits the city, goes to music festivals, and laughs a lot with his friends and family.
