Hey Casa,
I recently had a freestanding cast iron fireplace installed in my lounge. It's a Saey 92 woodburning stove — 30 inches high, 28 inches wide, and 23 inches deep, plus the heat output is very high. It's been put in the middle of a wall that's 18 feet across and the flue has been taken out the back so there's nothing above the stove.

The room is otherwise very minimal, painted entirely bright white, furnished with a simple white table, and accessorized with fruits and flowers.
