You can control the number of columns by adjusting the width of flex items

Result

#projects {
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap; /* row wrapping*/
  align-items: center;
  margin-top: 15px;
  justify-content: center;
}

#projects div {
  width: calc((100% - 40px) / 4); /* 4 items in row (with 40px for margins) */
  height: 170px;
  background: red;
  display: inline-block;
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #fff;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

<div id="projects">
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
  <div>lorem</div>
</div>
