The Man Who Changed Architecture Forever

Foster has always been considered a thoughtful architect. His early works, although smaller, do reflect his concern for the well being of the user. However, his later works, considerably larger and more complex, are much more grandeous and to my way of thinking further removed from what where Foster's earlier primary core values. Most disappointing for me are the enormous proposed projects for Middle East countries, Moscow, and satellite Soviet countries. Those proposed commercial projects reflect the overblown ambitions of both the client and Foster's vision of the future. Have fame and fortune finally overtaken Foster thinking? As a retired architect I had hoped Foster would have channeled his and his firm's talent in a different direction.

" most powerful " is an AI term…I like NF because like me, he cycles…not a Rogers fan. Corb changed the world not NF…narration is terrible.

Thank you for posting 🙏🏛….. you did not mention in your post text summary about NF first high-rise HSBC HK which is well advance in its time and in some aspects until now. How he won the competition is mind boggling too, convincing the jury even though NF has no prior high-rise experience. You quickly jump into mentioning his Berlin building and Apple. Also in your cover page for youtube, its not NF in the photo, please correct. Thank you again
