I received some photos in the last few days from a customer whose garden was brought up to date two years ago. I do not like to remove shrubs if they are working, so keeping a good deal of maturity, it was a case of working with a new layout to inject some further interest into the garden space, and adding perennials within existing borders to make them more dynamic.
I also split up the expanse of lawn, with brick edged gravel pathway, which leads to new steps and a second patio on the raised part of the garden, and the evening sun.

BEFORE, a rather predictable layout with large lawn and borders around the edges.
