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.)

Flaming Stars lamps Natascha Madeiski

Designed by London-based multidisciplinary artist Natascha Madeiski, the Flaming Stars lighting collection for Pulpo includes seven quirky sculptural ceramic table lamps.

An energetic homage to both Memphis design and Memphis music, the fixtures are named for Elvis Presley songs and combine unique hand-made shapes in unexpected ways.

When creating the series, Madeiski experimented with and referenced several different objects to achieve the curious forms, from a modelling balloon and plastic funnels to random material off-cuts and even home-baked bread.

Each dimmable lamp is handmade from gloss-glazed ceramic using a slip-casting technique, which results in unique streaks and variations in colour and size, making the fixtures individually distinct from one another.

The 1980s-inspired colour palette combines pastels with more vibrant hues, and there is also a special-edition glazed silver option.
