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.)

Patkau Twist by Nienkamper

Designed by Canada’s acclaimed Patkau Architects, the Twist chair – along with the Patkau Bench and Patkau Cocoon – represents the design duo’s first foray into furniture.

Patkau Twist by Nienkamper

At first glance, the Twist Chair is a deceptively simple structure. Using a patented process designed specifically for the Twist Chair, two layers of Birch plywood are “twisted” to form the complex curves that gives the shell of the chair its characteristic shape and declarative style.

Due to its minimalistic form, Twist is extremely elegant, resting on stainless steel hairpin legs, creating a chair that is visually light with a strong sense of timeless style.
