Our Story
Tired of static, stereotypical approaches to African-inspired design, a father and daughter team evolved a new approach that is current, contemporary and fresh.
With backgrounds in the arts, digital design and architecture, the founders, an African-Canadian father-daughter team, Osita D. Juwah and Ada-Nkem (Ada) Juwah felt there had to be a better way. So they built AfriMod—
