Seek out the Fine Woodworking article of a few years ago -- by far the
best proportioned. "Jake's Chair" is plug ugly, so are most that Google
finds.

It's an "adirondack chair". Plans are readily available. This should
get you started:

I did the Wood Magazine version of this chair awhile ago, and it turned out
pretty good (IMHO). Here's the link:

One of the nice things about this set was that it was dimensioned around 2x
and 1x stock, which meant if you picked through the local lumber yard for
straight stock (and a little use of a hand plane or two), you could get to
work pretty quickly on it. I've got some pictures of the finished product,
if you're interested.

They had some other matching lawn furniture, which I haven't got around to
yet.
