The partnership may sounds strange at first, but not when you consider the cause: online harassment.

We've gone ahead and pulled out the names to know when it comes to all things design and home. Some of them, like flatpack furniture startup Greycork and online furniture marketplace Move Loot, have recently been featured right here on Curbed.

Vox Media is getting ready to jump to the big screen, and Chad Mumm is leading the charge, building out a subsidiary called Vox Entertainment, and working on longform TV programming around brands like the Verge, SB Nation and Vox.com.

When it was founded four years ago, The Verge drew an overwhelmingly male audience. It started adding entertainment, science and transportation coverage to broaden its audience and advertising base. It has also sharpened its approach to social media. All this has helped site traffic (up 4 percent to 13.1 million visitors in November, per comScore) and social audience (up 87 percent, says the Verge) in the past year. But the changes have helped the Verge with another goal of bringing more women to a historically dude-dominated category.

The youngest VP at Vox Media, Vox Entertainment's Chad Mumm landed on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in the media category. To Forbes, Mumm and his 2016 class are defining and driving the ever-shifting world of news and content.

Heleo CEO Rufus Griscom talks with Peter Kafka about trying to build a “BuzzFeed for brains” that can distribute Big Ideas to the broader Internet.

“You see very senior women leaving technology and the men stay, mostly because they feel quite isolated and are isolated by the very systems,” she said during an interview in her lab on Facebook’s campus.

Code/Media will bring together the most influential minds in media and technology for two days of intimate gatherings and game-changing discussions.

Here are the eight things Re/code is expecting this year.

We loved the resurgence of riotous, fun Memphis design—and things inspired by that movement's bright, colorful geometries—as a counterpoint to the staid elegance of midcentury modern pieces (which, we doubt, are truly disappearing anytime soon).

Seminal graphic designer and Pentagram partner Michael Bierut doesn't believe in design as an esoteric pursuit. Sure, he's designed scores of posters for the Yale Graduate School of Architecture, and he can talk about Umberto Ecco as well as legible street signs, but consider some of the lessons present in his 2015 book How To.

From Paris to Seattle and back again, Curbed covered ingenious solutions for tiny living in 2015.

From midcentury modern gems to Victorian stunners, from the woodlands of upstate New York to the deserts of Arizona, incredible homes of many styles and locales have made it onto Curbed's House of the Day column in 2015.

Welcome to our 2015 Vox Media year in review: a collection of highlights and some of our favorite moments from The Verge, Vox.com, Eater, SB Nation, Polygon, Racked, Curbed, Re/code, our brand marketing division Vox Creative, and our technology and design backbone, Vox Product. It was an outstanding year for our company by any measure and we’re tremendously grateful to our team members and partners who contributed to our accomplishments, which should serve as inspiration for an even more impressive 2016.
