### Can Your MEME Do This?

Hey there, Nounish friends! Nouns will be taking over the world and we know it! Nouns are so much more than just on-chain governance. Just to name a few, today, Nouns have transformed into an ERC20 token, a movie, an IG reel (we love Quack & Nounish), an esports team, an on-chain media collective (hello, TNS!), a public art installation, a physical deli (Nouns deli, yumz!), and soon, even a school!

As cliché as it sounds, Nouns' expansion is only limited by our wildest imaginations.

We’re super excited to keep pushing the boundaries of what Nouns can be. Picturing a world adorned with Nounish public installations! Drawing from feedback, we’re back with a scaled-down but equally awesome version: **a 180 sqm fully public Nouns-themed play corner**. This space will enrich the already vibrant Nouniverse and add a dash of nounish magic into the world.  

###### Quoting Seneca: 'True to its CC0 origins, one consistent motif across Nouns is creative freedom (and ultimately, freedom). All creators desire freedom to do things their own way. Nouns enables people to come in and fulfill their ambitions in a way only they can. People from all backgrounds and skillsets have come to Nouns to build without deadlines, constraints, or limitations. In this sense, Nouns is about helping creators fulfill their ambitions with full creative freedom unlike anywhere else on the internet.'

### Why Build a Public Nouns-Themed Play Corner?

Imagine a **place** where Nouns come alive in a dynamic and engaging way. This Nouns-themed Play Corner will be just that—a vibrant hotspot of **creativity and fun** that embodies the **freedom and open-source ethos** of Nouns.

Our existing Nouns installations\* have already shown their ability as organic proliferation tools, spreading across social media. This Play Corner will up the game, being a hotspot for social media buzz and driving tons of organic engagement. It will be a lasting touchpoint with the Nouns brand in Guangzhou, sparking curiosity and joy for years to come.

But wait, there’s more! This Play Corner will be perfect for future events. Think school trips where young creatives—future architects and artists, exploring this space, soaking in the Nounish vibe, and getting **inspired.** They’ll get to learn about Nouns, dive into its CC0 elements, drawn in by it's creative freedom and maybe even sprinkle some Nounish magic into their own work.
