re: Good furniture

West Elm and C&B are more modern in my opinion than Pottery Barn and the like, is that the look you're seeking?

Ballard Designs is good. Some of the online retailers, One Kings Lane, stuff like that, aren't bad. For big box type of retailer, Ashley is probably my favorite among the more traditional ones, although it can be hit or miss.

We target Restoration Hardware, Ballard and Pottery Barn the most, but admittedly all of those are more expensive than C&B and more classic than modern.
