GOLDEN ICONS: How did you come up with the name Studio D-Maxsi?
Afua:Over the years, Afua’s sense of strength and purpose has grown tremendously allowing me to broaden my horizons and use my experience to create an empire; a legacy that my children could inherit. My vision and focus led to Studio D-MAXSI. The name was derived from the initials of my children – MAwuko and SelaSI e (the “D” stands for design and the “X” is included for phonetic reasons). Hard work, determination, and self sacrifice have kept Afua motivated.
