dear designboom reader,
before the year ends, we look back at the BIG stories that have made their mark in 2024. these include design products and social projects from our readers, ranging from a mobile home on wheels to a portable water filtration system and a pen that helps illiterate people start writing.
public art and exhibitions also take center stage this year, including the giant pigeon in new york and es devlin's drawings of 50 people displaced from their homelands. we also review technology and automotive designs, from cars and scooters to personal gadgets.
we hope our stories in 2024 have made you reflect on the many ways design can influence and be used in our daily lives. from all of us at designboom, we wish you happy holidays and exciting times!
