DESIGN HISTORY
MFRAMADAN means wind-resistant house
Name/Theme: MFRAMADAN is a symbol of fortitude and preparedness.
Symbol of fortitude and readiness to face life's vicissitudes This symbol suggests a reinforced or well-built home -- one built to withstand windy and treacherous conditions. It reflects in Asante history a clause in the unwritten constitution of the Golden Stool. Oral accounts say that according to that clause, mud houses in Kumasi must be reinforced with turf. This reinforcing would cause the house to be sturdier and resistant to unfavourable weather conditions.--from The Adinkra Dictionary by W. Bruce Willis
