Jean-Marie Duthilleul

Jean-Marie Duthilleul (; born 1952) is a French architect and civil engineer.

Education He studied architecture at the École de Paris La Seine, Paris and engineering at the École Polytechnique and the École des Ponts et Chaussées (now ).

Career In 1977, he became interested in the subject of urban planning, particularly of planned communities, which helped shape his views on centralisation, social mobility, population density and, later, energy management.

In 1982, he was project manager for the Universal Exposition and in 1983 was put in charge of the management of large Parisian civil state-sponsored projects. In 1986, the directors of SNCF (French State Railways) hired him to form a new architectural division. With Étienne Tricaud, he laid the theoretical groundwork for the creation of new, large stations in a contemporary style, which he saw from the points of view of both urban planning and architecture: opening up the city, intermodal transport, traffic management, accessibility and commercial development.

In 1997, he won the competition for the new high speed train station in Seoul, Korea. He and Tricaud created the multidisciplinary AREP agency (, "Management, Research, Interchange") as a wholly owned subsidiary of SNCF. AREP has since been involved in the development of many stations and other urban developments both in France and elsewhere.

Duthilleul was a consultant on the Grand Paris project, working with Jean Nouvel and Michel Cantal-Dupart. From 2010 to 2012 he presided over the planning committee for Plan Campus set up by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research.

In 2012, he created his own practice, Agence Duthilleul.
