Look at article.com for very well built furniture where you won't pay $10k for a couch. It's still pricy if you're accustomed to Ikea/Mass furniture shops.
What you're looking for furniture wise is kiln dried solid wood, full-grain (not top, etc) leather, etc. You'd pay $5-10k for this quality of furniture in most stores.
Personally article.com is too mid-centry for me which is unfortunate. I haven't found anything like them that are more modern.
Joybird.com is kiln dried hardwood as well but they don't mention what type of leather they use so I've just assumed it's not high quality. They're mid-century as well.
I'd love suggestions if anyone has some. I need new furniture.
edit: Ok joybird is top-grain. That's more resistant to stain (has a finishing coat applied) but it's lses breathable and doesn't develop a patina. Also it tends to be shinier due to the coat/scraping off of top hide. https://joybird.com/leathers/ https://joybird.com/leathers/
