The Brand My native language, Yoruba, greatly represents my creativity and follows my design ethos quite literally – our product design brand is called The DÅ Brand by Afrominima, ‘da’ being a Yoruba word that means ‘to make and to create’.

The Inspiratio­n I created my own unique style and design language called afrominima, which means a‘ frocentric minimalism’. It’s a movement that captures our beautiful continent’s rich culture.

The Future one of the many challenges we face is intellectu­al protection of our work. We also need to promote our identity in more innovative ways. Words that have guided me: ‘Find your wonder, believe in your wonder and protect your wonder’. afrominima
