Style Editor Julie A. Palm chats with co-founder Jamie Young Jeter about a new trio driving design at her company, her guardrails for creative integrity, the inspiration behind some High Point Market debuts, and more.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Julie A. Palm<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the retirement of half the husband-and-wife team behind Jamie Young Co.<\/a> last year, the company has hired veteran furniture designer Jenn Gibbs as director of product development. She, along with co-founder Jamie Young and the longtime creative director Charlee Lowery, now work together on product design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the trio may be a new leadership configuration, don\u2019t expect the company\u2019s vibe to change. In business for nearly 30 decades, Jamie Young Co., based in Gardena, California, has grown and evolved. But it has always maintained a natural, organic, handmade ethos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI want to say we\u2019re authentic. I think that word is overused right now so I hesitate, but authentic is the word. (A Jamie Young Co. product) has to feel real,\u201d Young says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPeople have considered us a coastal brand for many years,\u201d Young continues. \u201cBecause I was born and raised in Southern California at the beach, there\u2019s a strong influence for that casual coastal feel. But we have expanded that same casual elegance into all the different looks, from mountain to coastal to city to country. But we always try to stay very unique.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her husband, company co-founder David Jeter, remains a consultant for the company and still accompanies Young on her extensive and frequent travels, but the addition of Gibbs \u201chas helped expand our next chapter,\u201d Young says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI consider Jamie Young Co. a legacy brand that really is a startup right now and that’s kind of a fun way to look at it,\u201d Young says. \u201c\u2026 So, the three of us (Young, Gibbs and Lowery) \u2014 with more people that assist us \u2014 are really driving design right now. My whole background has been design, merchandising and entrepreneurship, so I feel like I still add a lot to the conversation, but it’s fun to have such great people working with me, taking us to the next place.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie Young Co. started by offering table lamps with mix-and-match shades and today, about 50% of the company\u2019s line is lighting. It also offers a wide range of accessories and furniture, essentially all key home furnishings, except upholstery, with products manufactured at partner factories around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Design based in DNA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One thing that hasn\u2019t changed for the company: Product design takes 14 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve tried a billion ways to get it shorter, but it really is 14 months,\u201d Young says. The creative process starts by looking at the existing line and seeing what\u2019s missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Throughout the design process, Young says, the team asks, \u201cIs it a Jamie Young? Is it in our DNA?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe might design something and love it, but if it really doesn\u2019t speak to our DNA, then we\u2019re not going to do it. I think that we stay true to ourselves that way,\u201d she says. \u201cWe love mixed materials. We love interesting materials. We love great finishes. \u2026 I\u2019ve been doing this for 29 years now, and we have a lot more resources now. We continue to dig into what has always worked for us and expand on that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creative inspiration comes from the team\u2019s travels, from visits to museums and vintage stores, from wandering neighborhoods and from scrolling social media. It comes from everywhere, Young says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fashion, travel and hotels are particularly important sources of inspiration for Young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI love fashion because there\u2019s such a beautiful mixture of textures and colors and materials. \u2026 I love everything from jewelry to clothing to purses to shoes, but also the history of it,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And, she adds, \u201chotel design is such a fun place to get inspired because you can do really extraordinary, unique things in hospitality design. \u2026 I was just in Vegas for a wedding a month ago and we were staying at a property. I looked around thinking, \u2018This is so much fun, look at the way they\u2019re putting things together. It\u2019s so over the top.\u2019 You get inspired.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mixed materials are a hallmark of Jamie Young Co. design. The Carousel chandelier combines coarse, bleached jute with gleaming brass for contrast.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Jamie Young Co. executive creative team meets for a couple of hours twice a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe walk through fresh design and merchandising ideas as far as what\u2019s missing (from our line), talk about what we all have been inspired by out in the world and then we move onto drawings \u2026 and follow it through with samples,\u201d Young says. \u201cAnd we do a ton of travel, meeting with the factories, making sure that we have the right factory for the right material. Sometimes it\u2019s the factory that helps us drive design because they have a material that might be fresh for us and we develop that. It\u2019s an organic process, but it does have some structure and formal processing to it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It might be ideal if pure creativity drove the process, but when designing new products, Young is mindful of practicalities, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the international challenges today is lead times in every country and how much they\u2019ve shifted based on everything that\u2019s going on globally. So, we start out with a calendar and work backwards,\u201d she says. \u201cThen, depending on what the lead times are, how the world is looking, we move things around. \u2026 The typical (product introduction) calendar for us is a January-July introduction. This year, we\u2019re doing things a little differently. So, we will have an April introduction and a Septemberone. With the Atlanta Market now being in June, not July, it\u2019s too close to High Point, so we shifted.\u201d The company will launch about 200 new products across categories at the April High Point Market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filtering ideas<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie Young Co. isn\u2019t relying on artificial intelligence for design at this point, perhaps in keeping with the company\u2019s philosophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI think you have to be careful to keep the human brain (at the center) from a creative standpoint,\u201d Young says. \u201cMaking (products) feel really human is important. One of the great things is we\u2019re actually making things. \u2026 We go to these gorgeous factories and talk to these human beings about a shape being shifted or a finish slightly changing or a natural weave that I want thicker not thinner. Those are the beautiful things.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to creativity, Young uses some filters and guidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, she\u2019s careful not to take photos of other companies\u2019 lighting fixtures because she never wants those designs to influence her own company\u2019s. (She makes an exception for details of antique fixtures).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIntegrity is critical,\u201d Young says. \u201cI might see a cool color or a finish that makes sense or a material that we haven\u2019t explored but I\u2019m always thinking, \u2018What\u2019s our take on it?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cala wall sconce made of hand-shaped, hammered glass petals and antique brass was inspired by an antique French chandelier. Shown here in Pale Blue, it can be hung in two directions, is also available in Sage Green and Clear.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

She\u2019s also thoughtful about who she follows on social media, focusing, for example, on international and architectural accounts. \u201cI find my brain just frying sometimes,\u201d Young says. \u201cSo, I\u2019m much more specific about who I follow from a creative standpoint, so that I\u2019m getting inspired properly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three new lighting collections debuting at the High Point Market \u2013 Carousel, Confetti and Corset \u2013 that incorporate glass beads, metal and rope in various combinations illustrate the Jamie Young Co. creative process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYears ago when I first started, there was a husband-and-wife team next to me at the New York Gift Show and they made these handwoven beaded glass frames and napkin rings that I fell in love with that I still have,\u201d Young says. \u201c\u2026 (More recently) I was looking at one of those beaded glass frames that has a picture in it of one of my kids when he was a baby, and I was thinking, \u2018This is such a great material and we\u2019re not using it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next step: Taking advantage of the skills and specialties of a partner factory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, I sent a picture of the frame to the factory. I said, \u2018Can you find these kinds of glass beads? This is the size we want to develop some chandeliers and mirrors in them,\u2019\u201d Young says. \u201cAnd they were great. Then we started playing with colors and came up with beautiful wall sconces and mirrors in these glass beads and that became part of a new collection.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie Young\u2019s love of fashion gets a nod in the new Corset wall sconce, which uses a beaded band to cinch the \u201cwaist\u201d of the shade.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The April market launch also includes Cala and Coronet glass wall sconces, a line extension of glass chandeliers that were inspired by a vintage French chandelier at a bar in Austin, Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs I said, we get inspiration everywhere,\u201d Young notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bringing Jamie Young Co. to showrooms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company\u2019s key customers are lifestyle home retailers, interior designers and lighting showrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRetail stores love to work with us because we make their lives easy. We\u2019re very much in stock and ship quickly. We have great sales teams; we have a good website. We have an amazing customer service department,\u201d she says. \u201cSo, I pride myself and the whole company in being one of those vendors that people have a good feeling about.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company offers specific programs for lighting showrooms. \u201c\u2026 And I believe our collection is something different,\u201d she says. \u201cThere are a few big lighting players out there, but we bring things to the table that are definitely a little more unique. For lighting showrooms, we\u2019re offering something they\u2019re not going to get with other lighting vendors. There is a hand-touched feel to Jamie Young \u2014 because everything we do is made by hand around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
