Guys -

I've been through all the "first-tier" places like IKEA - it's not like I didn't do any research here - and while I like some of the IKEA stuff, I'm very picky (because I'm kind of a douche bag) and would like some more options - anything else similar?

The West Elm stuff is pretty solid - drop me an IM and we'll discuss, thanks though, that's the type of place I'm looking for.

I was going to mention West Elm -- I love what I've seen in their catalogs, although I haven't purchased anything from them yet. Design Within Reach is HOT, but, uh, only within your reach if you want to shell out some $$$. Mod Livin' is a cute local place out here, but their website says free shipping for most stuff over $100, so that might be an option.

I have a catalog at home that has some funky, modern, inexpensive stuff -- I can't remember what the hell it's called but I'll let you know.

I don't know where all you looked in the DM, but did you check out this place?
Projects Furniture They're probably $$$$ but some of their stuff looks cool.

Damn, I hate all this stuff. Urban furniture, terrible.

Did you also look at chains like Macy's, Dania, Thomasville? You should also look at furniture consignment shops locally if you have them...some great finds in those.
