Hi all.. new forum user.. and new gardener.. so feedback and opinions on how to make better....very welcome.

I\'ve bought a new build house and I love a good old traditional garden, my partner, she loves new clean modern looks .. so we are doing both...

We have a composite deck at back which will house a summerhouse and pergola once it arrives .. the bottom will be sectioned (by a path) and have an old olive tree, a pond and beds with plants.....

I can move the pond, the path design, the plants but the olive tree and decking is fixed now.......any ideas on how to better the feel of the design or space or should I reconfigure the path? Any comments or tips most welcome
