It sounds like you need a ceiling fan. I have an ADU with a half loft and 26' ceiling over the other half. One decent fan really moves the air.

Sadly the second floor is a low and angled ceiling. We had installed a ceiling fan with an adapted mount but it wasn't long before one of us hit the fan while removing a shirt.

This sent the fan spinning at a weird angle and it hit the ceiling. This broke the wooden blades and sent them flying in all directions.

So floor fan it is now.

Ceiling fans are awesome. Especially when you operate them in reverse in the winter.
