Meet the Mod Squad: Angela Belt

Modernism Week is just around the corner (February 15-25, 2024), and we’re excited to welcome a new Mod Squad to take us behind the scenes of the ultimate celebration of midcentury architecture, design, culture, and more.

With a keen eye for design and a colorful, globally-inspired aesthetic, our next Mod Squad is a true Jill of all trades. Get to know multi-talented creative Angela Belt and read on to see what modernism means to her!

Angela Belt Interiors has been featured nationally and internationally in publications like Better Homes & Gardens, Elle South Africa, HGTV, and the Washington Post.  Angela works on residential and commercial projects in West Hartford and beyond.
