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.)

Kohler’s Stages kitchen sink and Sensate Touchless Faucet are designed with the discerning home cook in mind. The sink, created in tandem with Wisconsin’s five-diamond American Club, is constructed from 16-gauge stainless steel and is filled with productivity-minded features: its basin, available in two generous sizes, is wide enough to fit large pots. It features a stainless steel accessory rack, a stepped side platform and a flip tray for food prep (or cleanup). And Stages’ SilentShield design is an acoustic solution aimed at making dishwashing less disruptive.

Stages pairs naturally with Sensate, a touchless faucet that responds to hand gestures or nearby objects; built around the brand’s proprietary Response tech, it activates within 20 milliseconds. The sprayhead features a braided hose and docks magnetically, and offers two spray types: a standard stream or Sweep, which creates a wide, forceful stream of water aimed at making cleanup quicker. Quietly thoughtful touches, like durable ceramic disc valves and configurable temperature memory, round out Sensate, which is available is polished chrome and stainless finishes
