Does Norman Foster have a clear Architectural Language?

My name is Waqar Hussain and I’m currently studying Architecture at University. I have set my a task for my dissertation to dismantle four of Norman Foster’s buildings which are, The Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts in Norwich, Chek Lap Kok Airport in Hong Kong,  Swiss Re HQ in London and finally the Willis Faber & Dumas Headquarters in Ipswich. The question for my dissertation is “Whether Norman Foster has a clear Architectural Language?

 

Do you think Foster have a clear Architectural Language?
