Does anyone have any landscaping ideas for me? My initial plan was to dig out the archway in my backyard to deal with the grass that keeps growing beneath it. I dug it out today and the wood platform is not in great shape, so I'll have to rebuild it. It's not centered with my firepit like I had hoped either and now I have to decide if I want to move it and rebuild it a few feet away so it is centered with the firepit, or rebuild it where it is. I have a picture below of what it looks like now. I'm kind of stuck on how to make things look more cohesive. I should add that I will be putting down landscaping fabric over the dirt parts and then woodchips over that in the next few weeks.
In the picture it doesn't look off-center, but it is. The yellow line is where it should be centered. The blue lines are where I plan to continue digging up sod. Orange is where I plan to put my vegetable gardens, red are two small amur maples that I planted last year, and green are two small spruces I planted last year. About halfway up the path until the blue lines are planted with tulips.
