Chi Wara is the carved antelope headdress of the Bamana people, danced in paired male-and-female crests during agricultural initiations in southern Mali. Its aesthetic is pure silhouette — long curved horns, openwork mane, lacquered black wood punctuated by cowrie shells and brass tacks.

This design system translates that calligraphic three-dimensionality into interface language: millet-field gold grounds, dark wood typography, brass-tack dot borders, and sweeping horn-curve dividers that honour the mythical being who taught humans to farm.
