The overview lists the 4 latest folders, and the 15 latest projects. You can see all of them in the Folders and Projects pages, which you can access through the small menu on the left. Or by clicking View all above the folders. 

 It can be useful to have a folder where you put Cancelled and Declined projects that are not useful anymore.

TIP: You can also manage folders and projects through API. See more about using API here
