What AZE Design Architects & Engineers does

AZE Design is a privately held multi-disciplinary architecture, interior design, and engineering firm headquartered in Turkey with additional offices in Uzbekistan (Tashkent) and Italy (Milan). The firm serves enterprise clients across hospitality, commercial, mixed-use, residential, healthcare, and education sectors in at least six countries — Turkey, Uzbekistan, Russia, Georgia, Hungary, and Italy — with a portfolio of 23+ delivered projects. Named engagements include the Sindika Hotel, BAXT Mall, Agrobank, and the İlkyar Foundation Science Campus.

The firm delivers full-spectrum services spanning master planning, architectural design, interior design, structural and engineering disciplines, and construction supervision, supported by a team of approximately 10 listed professionals that combines senior architects and engineers with younger design staff. There is no indication of proprietary technology, in-house software platforms, or AI/ML capabilities; delivery is human-led professional services using standard architectural and engineering toolchains.

AZE's commercial model is sales-led, project-based fee-for-service work sourced largely through enterprise and developer clients. No pricing, retainers, or backlog data are publicly disclosed. Geographic distribution across three offices and six countries is a notable operational feature, and vertical diversification into healthcare and education in 2023 signals ongoing broadening of the addressable market beyond hospitality and commercial work.
