I bought bookcases at IKEA several years ago for the home office and for the guest room. The units are sturdy and the price was right. They come in lots of sizes and are called "Billy." Plain and functional and easy to put together.

There is a chair called POANG (with two little dots above the A). The chair is small, simple, and surprisingly comfortable and could fit fine into the corner of a bedroom for a reading area or for putting on your socks and shoes.

I like to learn about furniture. I like to shop for furniture -- all kinds of furniture -- from Stickley to IKEA to antiques. I know what I like. And each kind has its place with me.
