My favorite is sort of like the barcelona. I can't remember the name. It has arms a and a cantilevered base but with tufted cushions sort of like the barc.
This is a long shot, but I know there was a pair in the Philip Johnson house that ended up with a Frank Gehry guest house in the back. Ring any bells?

I think you're thinking about the Tughendat (sp?) chair.
