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.)

A pared back seating collection, Folk by PearsonLloyd emphasizes a simplicity that belies its two-year development process. The chairs’ seamless design is void of any visible fixings and can be easily assembled from its flatpack state. 

The low-profile and contoured backrest offers comfortable support, while it’s compact design allows it to be stacked for out-of-the-way storage. Available as a chair (with an overall height of 79 centimetres) and a stool (110 centimetres), Folk comes in a wood, metal or plastic and in a range of colourways that can be mixed and matched to create custom combinations or monotone configurations (upholstered versions can also be specified).

Originally intended for bistro seating, the seat’s versatile aesthetic works just as well in office, lobby and residential settings.
