Biography
Guy Marriage is an architect, registered in Britain and in New Zealand. Now teaching construction, design and building science at Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand, he gained construction experience from over two decades in practice, with 11 years working in architectural practices in London including Colman Architects, Jestico + Whiles, and Foster + Partners. Returning to New Zealand in 2000, he worked for 7 years at the Studio of Pacific Architecture and was one of the founding directors of First Light Studio in 2012. He has experience in projects that range in scale from small homes, prefabricated houses, and apartment buildings, as well as shopping centres, multi-storey office buildings, and two of the largest Jubilee Line underground railway stations in London. In 2019, he published his first book Tall: The Design and Construction of High-Rise Architecture.
