— February 26, 2010 — Art & Design
It's interesting to see companies step up and create something really worthwhile, something that truly has meaning and can help another person live a better life; The Displaced Project is one of those endeavors.

Created by Raneen Nosh, The Displaced Project helps those who have lost a home and find themselves lost without any worldly possessions. Through textile-based objects, one is able to find solace through a sense of domestic comfort.
