You can learn more about projects on the LookML projects and development model and LookML terms and concepts documentation pages.

A LookML project can contain more than one model file. However, if you want to specify permissions for users around seeing and editing LookML for a specific model file, you might want to create a new project. Although most permissions in Looker apply at the model level, there are some that apply to the project level, including see_lookml, which lets you view LookML for a project, and develop, which lets you edit the LookML. If you want to give users access to one model but not another, it’s a good idea to create a separate project containing the model you don’t want them to have access to.
