Check out this office chair from Chicago-based CB2. I may be a bit behind the times, but I just discovered this today when a catalog randomly came to my girlfriend's house addressed to her sister. But I loved the simplicity of the majority of their stuff. It seemed like a cross between Ikea and Target, and, though slightly more expensive than both, CB2 still has reasonable prices.
Be sure to give them a look if you're hoping to spruce up that office or dining room and are sick of the Ikea look (though I don't know how you could be).
