African symbols

These designs  are inspired by symbols from African cultures. We’ve started with Adinkra – visuals symbols from the Akan people in present-day Ghana and Ivory Coast.

Symbols include:

Wawa aba (seed of the wawa tree) – A symbol of hardiness, toughness and perseverance

Nkonsonkonson (chain link) – A symbol of unity and human relations

Sankofa (return and get it) – A symbol of importance of learning from the past

and Denkym – (crocodile) – A symbol of adaptability.
