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.)

Crowded Elevator by Andrés Reisinger

Merging art and design, the oddly named and voluptuously upholstered Crowded Elevator was inspired by “a celestial body displaying signs of past life,” according to designer Andrés Reisinger, who presented it at Milan’s Nilufar Gallery. “The mountains look like large blocks of frozen water covered with snow, while the plains observed on the surface seem to be made of frozen nitrogen gas and show no craters.” We dig it. The piece combines a stainless-steel chassis with a foam body wrapped in fluted pink leather.
