Dimension DAO
Dimension DAO is the Web3 arm of a 5 year old network and guild that brings together mentees and mentors from the fields of Architecture, Design and Making in order to share knowledge, perfect their art and expand possibilities.
This project was born with the intent to bring together the community of architects, designers and makers from all around the world and help them sell their designs, 2D & 3D assets and technical drawings as NFTs at a global price point.
We already have 200 plus members interested in forming a web3 community that comprise of architects, artists and designers from our existing network of audience of 45k+ members
Vision
We want to help transition our community of 47k and our associated network of 200k+ to a web3 community with Goals divided in 2 phases.
- To create a web3 community of architects, artists and designers from our existing network of 200 plus members with an audience of 200K+.
- Create an NFT marketplace focused on -
- Real world design IPs via NFTs (Eg - Furniture designs, technical drawings)
- Metaverse based designs (Eg - 3D assets for metaverse, virtual spaces, avatars)
How to achieve the Vision -
Phase 1 -
