Taxonomy fields store term IDs, not the name of the term. In addition to this they store arrays of values.

so something like this /projects/?designer=new_studio would need to look something like this /projects/?designer=22 (id value is just an example)

And then the query would need to look something like this

$meta_query[] = array(
  'key' => 'project_designer_obj',
  'value' => '"'.$_GET['designer'].'"', // quotes around id important
  'compare' => 'LIKE',
);
