Authentic First Nations Art
We collaborate directly with talented Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists. Their stories are respectfully upholstered into every chair, lounge and ottoman we craft.
Australian‑Made Quality
All work, joinery and upholstery happen right here in Brisbane, Queensland. Local production keeps jobs on Country and ensures rapid, reliable lead times for projects across Australia and New Zealand.
Culture‑First DesignOur pieces do more than furnish a room. They invite people to connect with Country, fostering belonging and conversation in workplaces, universities, health center and public spaces.
Sustainability & ResponsibilityWe are committed the highest environmental standards by minimising packaging and transport emissions, embedding continuous improvement targets across our operations, sourcing materials that meet strict benchmarks such as E0 board and favouring locally made components, and practising full product stewardship-inviting clients to return end-of-life furniture for recycling or repurposing while guiding them toward sustainable choices from the outset.
Madji is a supplier under Queensland Government Standing Offer Arrangements, supporting government departments, schools, hospitals and public-sector organisations across Queensland.
