Famed for designs that have fused technology and nature and transformed modern cityscapes, Foster, 90, said the opportunity was an "honour and a privilege".
The memorial will include a statue of the queen, a keen horsewoman, on horseback and another of her arm in arm with her late husband Prince Philip.
Elizabeth, Britain's longest serving monarch, died in September 2022 aged 96 after more than 70 years on the throne.
