http://gearpatrol.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/ikea-malung-swivel-chair.jpgI like the poäng combined with a sheepskin rug (very good price). My favorite is the Eichenberger.
Dr House (when I saw the first and last episode in my life) has a Eames Lounge Chair & Ottoman but I didn't feel very comfortable in this one.
Do you have any preferences?

I've had a Poang chair since 1984 with an ottoman and it continues to be my favourite reading chair, and for generally curling up with my cat and a cup of tea. I just find it puts me in a calmer frame of mind, I guess because I associate pleasant activities (or non activities) with it. It's put up with being moved umpteem times and always fits in with my decor no matter how I change it.
Obviously I'm biased :-)

the problem with the poang is that if you should happen to move forward on the seat, you could very easily tip the chair forward and find yourself on the floor. It's not a long trip, and it can be avoided, but I say try this one out first. :-)

The Eichenberger is a little bit better (adjustable backrest angle) than the poäng but
for the the price I think there is no better armchair than the poäng. The poäng is furthermore quite easy to replace in the living room and you can clean easily with a vacuum cleaner through the warm bony frame.I like mattresses, I have a latex mattress which is not a sleeping place but a working place. For chairs I always use a sheepskin. Changing positions is healthy for the back by the way, sitting, lying...
For psychiatrists I would recommend comfy chairs for patients so that the patient isn't a client but instead a respectet equal conversation partner. I would choose the eichenberger for that.
besides design chairs and louis seize I like ikea quite much. Their sofas are also very nice.
