A home furnishings brand doesn’t usually start with a dusty street find, but that’s exactly where Jamie Young begins. We talk with Jamie about the moment she loaded cement pots off the streets of Mexico into a truck, drove them back to Los Angeles, and accidentally kicked off a design business that now spans lighting, mirrors, accessories, and a fast-growing furniture line.

Along the way, we get into what “quiet luxury” really looks like behind the scenes: the creative choices that make a piece feel collected and timeless, plus the operational decisions that keep a product-based company alive. Jamie shares how trade shows, early cash flow pressure, and an angel investor helped her move from scrappy hustle to a scalable home decor brand. We also dig into global sourcing in India and South Asia, building long-term factory relationships, and why logistics can be just as important as taste.

We also zoom in on what it takes to stay fresh after 30 years. Jamie explains how she uses a blend of analytics and instinct to develop new designs, how her team reviews product twice a year for major launches, and what went into creating a new 54-piece case goods and seating collection for High Point Market. If you’re building a design brand, working in interior design, or dreaming about launching a product line, this conversation is packed with real-world lessons and the kind of honest “we figured it out” stories you rarely hear.
