This 118 story Russia Tower in Moscow is just one of Norman Foster's great designs. " He uses acrobatic engineering to break open floors normally stacked like pancakes." Just one of the many quotes from the issue on him in the Oct. issue of Architectural Digest. He has 1000 members working for him at Foster and Partners in London. He has designed huge buildings but has recently taken up designeing schools in London primarily for disadvantaged students. he also designs household goods, from tables to lighting and door handles. He really works and honors the modernist. To learn more about his work and see some pictures you can go to their website. http://www.fosterandpartners.com/Practice/Default.aspx
