Our Story

 

A Journey of Sisterhood, Heritage and Lifestyle

Mapiqueen Design was born from a conversation between two sisters, Christelle and Ida.

One lives in Cameroon, the other in Switzerland. One is passionate about fashion and textiles, the other about interior design and the art of living. Despite the kilometres between them, they share the same conviction: our home environment profoundly influences our wellbeing.

It all started with a simple observation. African textiles have inspired the world for generations, yet they rarely find their place in the bedroom — that intimate space where we recharge, dream and reconnect with ourselves.

We grew up surrounded by fabrics that carry stories: Ndop, Bogolan, Kente and many other African textile traditions. Behind every pattern lie symbols, memories, celebrations and craftsmanship passed down through generations.

From this, we imagined a brand capable of bridging these heritages with contemporary art de vivre.

Our ambition is simple: to invite you to travel from the comfort of your own home.

Through our collections, we seek to transform bedrooms and living spaces into places of calm, softness and escape — spaces where every textile tells a story and every detail contributes to everyday comfort.

Our creations are conceived between Cameroon and Switzerland. They bring together the authenticity of African inspiration and the standards of quality, comfort and elegance we seek for our own homes.

Every piece is designed around three commitments:

Journey — Collections inspired by the cultures, colours and craftsmanship that surround us.

Wellbeing — Beautiful materials and thoughtfully designed pieces that bring softness, serenity and harmony to your interior.

Authenticity — Products created with care, in respect of artisans, traditions and the standard of quality that guides every decision we make.

It all began with a reversible duvet cover.

A creation designed to offer two atmospheres, two emotions, two ways of experiencing your interior — shifting with your mood and the seasons.

Today, this idea remains at the heart of Mapiqueen Design: creating collections that invite you to travel while making your home a true sanctuary.

Welcome to our world.
