Office chair. ... not made of wood - but otherwise ..
The "control room" 24 x 7 units are well built
but pricey .. and not exactly lightweight.

For a 300 pounder you want a _good_ chair, and if he (or she) is a
senior especially so--a chair breaking is annoying when you're 30 but
can be a trip to the ER when you're 80.

Take a look at the Herman Miller, Knoll, and Steelcase web sites.
You'll find very expensive exceedingly high quality chairs. If you
can afford the price, call them, give them the specs, and wait for the
truck. If you can't, once you find the chair you want, ebay is your
friend--chairs of this quality last through several owners.

I presume the OP, who asked to be pointed to "plans", plans on
building the chair, not buying it.

I recognize that he wants to make it. And as a 300 pound senior
citizen I'm advising against it. I've had too many commercially made
chairs die under my weight (even when I was much lighter) to be
sanguine about the durability and safety of someone's first attempt at
such construction.

A senior falling out of a chair can be a death sentence. A 300#
senior, double so.
