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.)

numbers by mud australia

A collaboration between Vince Frost (founder and creative director of his eponymous Sydney-based design agency, Frost*collective) and MUD Australia, the Numbers series is a playfully fresh take on the humble address identifier. These “numerical interpretations” have a graphic font with a bubble-like appearance, lending a strong sculptural quality that seamlessly blends design with art. 

Developed in small and large sizes, the individual digits (from 0 to 9) can be used to mark exterior and interior doors or simply as a cheerful objet d’art. A lighthearted yet stylish alternative to the more common metal figures or mounted plaques, these Numbers are handmade-to-order from porcelain and available in the brand’s 19 signature colours, plus the muted grey tone of its unglazed zero-waste Rescued Clay (made from the trimmings and spillage from porcelain slip casting, this recycled clay is carbon neutral and diverts upwards of 1,500 litres of clay from landfills yearly).
