SIR Norman Foster has won the commission to refurbish the Reichstag in Berlin. The jury of the competition, set up by the German government to find an architect, was unable to make a choice and handed the decision to Germany's politicians, who selected the English architect. Back in Britain, Sir Norman has unveiled proposals for a warplane museum at Duxford, Cambridgeshire, which will house 20 US Army Air Force fighters and bombers.
