## **Nouns Themed Play-Structures**
On top of the initial batch of play-structures, we will also identify **additional 4 Nouns characters** with the design team. These will also be created into play structures and release as part of our open-source design kit, to provide a more **diverse range** of play options which would help boost adoption.
Below are the initial batch of play-structure design:

## **FAQ:**
**1. Is this playground open to public?**
Yes! This will be a public playground that is accessible to everyone; a large scale tangible Nounish public good.
**2. Is the land for the themed playground secured?**
Yes! We have secured a 2000sqm plot of land beside Element 6 to construct this themed playground.
**3. What is Element 6?**
Element 6, located in Guangzhou, is a recreational hub with a diverse range of indoor and outdoor activities, include but not limited to go-karting, rock climbing, surf simulator and more; drawing an average monthly footfall of 800,000 visitors. It operates as a subsidiary under the XiangNeng Investment conglomerate.

**4. Are there any liability concerns?**
Liabilities are covered under Element 6's insurance that enveloped both indoor and outdoor activities.
**5. Will we encounter any permit issues?**
Element 6 owns the land and it is commercially zoned, where the proposed construction work aligns with zoning regulations. We've also conducted due diligence, including consulting with the authorities, and received verbal approval thus, we are confidence in obtaining the final official approval in a timely manner.
**6. Can this prop be done in phases?**
Progressing in phases to protect the DAO's interest is an ideal approach; however, the land allocation offered to us isn't available in perpetual for gradual proposals process. Therefore, we've structured the funding in a manner that allow us to commit to this project with an initial release, while the rest is released via stream as we progress, which the DAO can halt if any unforeseen issues arise.
**7. Why not just fund the design of the play-structures?**
Funding open-source product is Nounish; however, it's wasteful without utilization, and its impact is diminished in the absence of (in this case) tangible play-structure to showcase actual playability and potential. The physical Nouns Themed Playground would help facilitate the propagation of such reusable components to other location & industry professionals with greater effectiveness.
**8. How is this prop scalable?**
Playground equipment had a market share of $4.91 billion in 2022, with a projected increase to $9.65 billion by 2030, reflecting a 7% CAGR from 2023 to 2030. This highlights a linear growth in this market.
The physical Nouns themed playground would allow us to showcase and build trust with industry professionals, allowing us to share our open-source designs with them, to have them integrate Nouns themed play-structures into their product catalogs confidently. We are able to promote open-source while at the same time allowing us to **leverage on their clientele and this growing market, boosting adoption** of Nouns themed play-structures in playgrounds worldwide, given the preference for catalog-based designs by most clients.
Furthermore, anyone, especially builders in Nouns community can also use this activation as a monument to ease interaction with their local town that do not have playground or intent to build a playground, to eventually plug and build a Nouns Themed Playground using the open-source design.
## **Budget**
**[UPDATE]**
*We've secured a new contractor for the design and fabrication of our Nouns themed play-structure, reducing cost by 12%.*
