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.)

When designing the Brea collection of lounge seating for outdoor furniture brand Dedon, Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby paid particular attention to the details. The duo combined sophisticated lines with a unique connecting system comprised of universal locks that seamlessly secure the tubular steel frames and back- and armrests in place. 

Wrapped in waterproof upholstery fabric (that is easily removed), the voluminous cushions have the look of indoor seating but offer high durability for outdoor use. Belts of tension webbing on the frames support seating while maintaining a sleekly modern yet elegant profile. 

The series can be configured to create lounge chairs, double daybeds, two-, three- and four-seater sofas and more, plus it includes two sizes of powder-coated metal coffee tables with mineral-composite surfaces. Modules are made from powder-coated metal in three finishes – white, black pepper and palm green – and can be paired with a wide range of Dedon outdoor fabrics.
