DESIGN HISTORY
Fie’ refers to the home or house, ‘hankra’ also refers to a compound or courtyard. Fihankra, therefore, means a compound house or courtyard house. This symbol reflects security, safety, solidarity, and communality enjoyed in the company of family members who live in a compound house. This symbol shows vivid imagery of what goes into the construction of a house apart from the emphasis of security, safety, solidarity, and communality enjoyed as a family house.
