Azure celebrates 30 years of covering design and architecture

It's anniversary season, it seems, and design magazine Azure is celebrating its 30th anniversary with its May issue -- a special featuring Toronto, its home -- on Canadian newsstands today.

"The world’s most livable city is on the rise: from the waterfront revitalization and the rebirth of Union Station to the next generation of design and architecture firms taking the city by storm."

Part of the celebratory mood is marked by the publication of the 30th anniversary [online] journal. It explores the designs and designers that have affected the new urbanism, architecture, furniture and product design that Azure has covered in the three decades since its founding.
