# Norman Foster (@norman-foster)

Norman Foster was a British architect whose practice helped define high-tech architecture. The work is especially associated with lightweight structure, integrated engineering, environmental systems, and large-span enclosures. Major projects include the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank, Reichstag dome, and 30 St Mary Axe. A responsible account also considers the transformation of technical systems into public architectural expression.
