CJ Paone | AIA is an award-winning architect and designer in Ventura, CA. He founded Archipelago Workshop in 2003, and specializes in residential architecture, landscape design, and custom architectural details. Like the island chains for which his studio is named, CJ's projects are each distinct, but part of a greater whole that connects his spaces - and those who live in them - with the environment. He draws inspiration from the natural world, and from the diverse designs of cultures around the globe.
