Summer 2026

The June/July/August 2026 edition of AZURE is dedicated to our 16th annual AZ Awards — and also features the best of Milan, the New Museum’s expansion, the latest in building envelope systems and more!

The AZ Awards issue packs much more than our winners and finalists — though they certainly take pride of place. (And you can read all about them on our dedicated AZ Awards site.)

This collection of wall sconces is a contemporary interpretation on traditional Chinese lanterns and is made by Articolo’s network of local artisan metalworkers and glassblowers.

The sculptural forms combine luxurious materials in a pleasingly geometric profile, which features a smoothly tapered metal shade hung from a simple cylindrical peg; the rounded glass shade casts a shadow of conical light that creates a subdued ambiance. 

The hand-finished shades are made from brass and offered in natural, mid-bronze or satin nickel, while the glass is available in a muted palette that includes tea, aubergine, grey, clear, snow and teal – metals and glasses can be combined in multiple variations and include a flexible cord in black, white or ivory.
