Currently exploring a new design: a @nouns dashboard concept.

A single place for Nouns owners to see treasury overviews, proposal metrics, + more with and a clean layout to keep things simple & actionable.

I don’t usually share work this early, but here’s an initial draft!

thoughts?

One Noun, every day, forever.

2024 was a great year where I got to meet a whole bunch of cool people and do a whole bunch of cool shit. 

Looking forward to doing that again but more + better this year

Design Everydays

I’m excited to share a recent design exploration: a crypto wallet inspired by the familiar and intuitive Apple Wallet experience!

The goal was simple - make a crypto portfolio feel intuitive and approachable for everyone by leveraging the principle of familiarity

Why doesn't money received show up on under the "Activity" tab in the Meta Mask wallet? 

Seems like a pretty simple UX fix unless there's a technological reason I'm missing

I've spent the last year learning about + working in Web3 as a designer and producer. Over the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing designs aimed at reflecting some aspects of Web3 UX/UI that I think can be improved or simplified! 

First up - a clean, streamlined wallet design

Who came up with web3 terminology and are we allowed to change it? I feel like tackling that problem could help onboard a lot of traditionally web2 people

A must visit for all anime fans!

The two biggest hurdles to onboarding the next wave of web3 users are:
1. Navigating poor user experience
2. Confusing messaging

want to bring the world onchain?

we've built a toolkit for small businesses to accept USDC on @base. 

onboard a biz you own, onboard your local coffee shop, onboard anyone.

A simple yet strong step to get a new set of people unfamiliar with web3 and crypto onchain

Nouns

This Cares Club recap is from our recent participation with EDCON Tokyo, where we launched an interactive retail and creative pop-up powered by Nouns at the United Nations University in Shibuya. This activation showcased real-world applications of onchain technology and provided educational sessions on Nouns.

In addition to the pop-up, we hosted workshops on Nouns, sub-DAOs, and featured artists within the Nouns community. We also premiered Shark, Pickle, Cone and concluded with a memorable Nouns after-party at Circus in Shibuya, Tokyo.

The Cares Club activation is not just a one-time event; it's the beginning of a global movement with a mission to bring the world onchain. We invite you to be part of this journey towards greater impact. Stay tuned for more updates and join us in our mission.

Special thank you to @edcon @wmw @ccarella.eth @aesopsolo @azeem @bigshotklim @greenbomb @patyiutazza @esports @hirookokokok @vitalik.eth @nounishprof + everyone involved

This was an amazing event that brought so many interested people into the Nouns community. 

Can’t help but feel it’s a model that can create an IRL way of leveraging events to spread the Nouns message and to grow the community in an authentic and human way

Edcon felt like a great moment for me to learn more about web3 and some of the cool companies that operate in the space. 

And how so much of the space can use a hand with design

A very well put summation by @frankieco.eth on the ways we can introduce legacy brands into the web3 space more organically and with less risk
