About Us

Madder & Rouge 'An Interior world filled with layers of rich colour & texture'

Our History

The Madder & Rouge story begins back in 2001. While on an overseas buying trip Darran Mangelsdorf & Erin O'Malley (that's me) discovered the beautiful French Stripe fabric. We fell in love with the unusual vibrant colour combinations & classic design. This fabric immediately inspired and opened before us our interior vision. Homes filled with colour, texture & joy. This fabric still remains the core of our interior story - a story which has grown to include beautiful natural Italian linens, painted French cushions, handmade French ceramics, handloomed textured cushion, Moroccan boucherouites and interesting one off handcrafted objects for your home.

We now represent a number of French & European companies in New Zealand - Tolix, Maison Levy, tse & tse, Bed & Philosophy, Savonnerie de Bormes, Comptoir des teintures,Vivaraise, Injiri and Annie Sloan chalk paint. These companies share our vision for colour & design, and together we will continue to bring you beautiful timeless products for your home

Our Style

At Madder & Rouge we love the seduction of colour. We are all about layers of natural fabric, feather filled cushions mooshed into liveable comfy sofas. Our style is well travelled, sometimes pre-loved - but always beautiful, pratical and timeless.

Our Guarantee

At Madder & Rouge we are confident in the design construction of our products. Each madder & rouge cushion is handcut and sewn here in New Zealand with exacting attention to detail. We also stand behind the integrity of the companies we represent in France.
