Norman Foster Lays Off 300+ Employees

Catching up on some news from while this writer was away: now that Norman Foster is looking to becoming a normal person once his “Lord” is stripped away, the realities of the tough economy are also apparently plaguing the starchitect, as it’s been announced that his firm Foster + Partners is set to lay off more than 300 employees. Largely due to cancelled projects and other plans put on hold (including the embarrassing mistakes on the Harmon Hotel), without the revenue coming in, the company can no longer keep such a large staff, resulting in yet another hit within the industry, at the very, very top of the game.
