Jamie Young Company will unveil a new assortment that underscores its globally inspired vision rooted in natural textures and craftsmanship. And although it is expanding beyond its well-established lighting and mirror categories into larger furniture pieces, there are several new lighting pieces to consider as well.
“We’re expanding in so many categories, but we’ve made sure that classic JYC patterns made a return on table lamps, and new resin petal chandeliers carry that same sense of motion we love,” said Jamie Young. “Our October collection is all tied together with an elevated, understated elegance that runs through everything we do.”

Modern Forms will feature many new smart ceiling fans in High Point that blend cutting-edge technology with bold design and great materials. Introductions include Carve (natural wood, 60 and 72-inch sizes, various housings and blade colors, damp-rated); Pisces (alabaster finish, three-blade configuration, a 54-inch sweep and a quiet DC motor); and Smooth (minimalist design with a 52-inch sweep in multiple finishes with either silver or matte-black blades). All three have smart features and can be integrated with voice-controlled devices.
