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.
