This proposal adds a new head trait: Sand Castle
Sand castles are a universal symbol of creativity, imagination, and construction.
Whether on a beach in Brazil or in a park in Madrid, a sand castle represents the same thing: the power to create freely and the joy of building.
They represent play, creativity, and imagination in their most genuine state.
Building sand castles is embracing the ephemeral. It's engaging with uncertainty to iterate, improve, and start anew. It is to build knowing that, even if it falls, you can always start again.
It's an expression of unrestricted creative freedom, simply for the pleasure of playing, experimenting, and discovering.
The sand castle trait fits perfectly into the Nouns collection because it captures this essence: the freedom to create and experiment, play, imagination, and creativity combined with experimentation, construction, accessibility, and universality.
The art in the Nouns collection, like any visual system, must be coherent to be recognisable and make sense as a whole. The sand castle design meets the following criteria to match the visual language of the collection:
Showcase Noun
Trait artwork
Circle crop
Palette: 4 colors

from /nounsfe:
For: 4 | Against: 0 | Abstain: 1
lunari: FOR - nounish ^~^ Since it's becoming more common to add a head (and receive a Noun in return), I'd say this is a great use of the treasury, but the bar for new trait props should def continue to raise! +1 coralorca
katalyyst: ABSTAIN - I like the head design and would of course like to see it added, but I see no precedent for a noun in exchange. I'm not against rewarding members of the community who are creating nounish media, however I'm abstaining for now.
jesscas: FOR - sandcastle cool, I wasn't aware that a noun was the usual exchange for a head addition, so if that's the case, let's do it!
ashe: FOR - Omg this is very cute and the idea of creativity noun head to represent nouns as creative peeps oh it's so cute I can't get over it.
What is not to love about this?
What is not to love about this?
I love this. Definitely could see it expanding Nouns to coasts, similar to the Wave/Shark/etc Nouns!
+++ I love the design considerations â this trait is nounish ââ¨-â¨
What is not to love about this?
good onchain summer trait. as mentioned elsewhere; love the promo for this pre-prop.
+1 everybody . && its a mixed noun!
(q i've been earnestly contemplating is whether 2 nouns in 1 head == 2 noun reward)
ty facu!
What is not to love about this?
right on
this is one of my favourite trait designs period, and an excellent proposal
great work facu!
Love the sand castle - brings a new fun vibe just in time for onchain summer. And love the cartoon in the prop. Well done facu!
This proposal turned out beautifully!
I love the trait and what it stands for, it looks super nounish and part of the collection.
I need a sandcastle noun!
Like coral said, youâre setting the bar high.
What an absolute legendary trait submission!
