Heading overseas in 2000, a stint on building sites in France gave Halliday a solid understanding of the building process – this ‘on the tools’ experience instilled a high level of pragmatism to his design approach.
Before returning to New Zealand to start ArcAtelier, Halliday worked closely with Jamie Falla in Guernsey for five years. Jamie taught him the value of freehand sketching and fostered the notion of holding tight to the core design idea. The two continued to collaborate after Hallidays return, and together they won a Guernsey Design Award for ‘best renovation/extension for ‘Horizons’ in 2016.
