Yes, usually. But not today, for i've met my 40 hour work week prior to this snow. By not going in tonight i just sacificed overtime pay which is not strictly needed

Absolutely agree with blueskies60 ! Remove the artwork/bench/plant that's on the left and replace then with either a bookshelf or a tall chest of drawers. Perhaps the plant can be repositioned into the corner on the floor where this troublesome niche is (there seems to be more than enough light there for a plant) and just place something calm and simple in the niche itself - perhaps a Japanese style scroll or pen and ink art work set off with a more rounded object sitting in the left corner of the niche; a gorgeous rock, a lovely candle, a calming statue... If you have (my preference) a chest of timber drawers on the left where the current art work is, you'll break up the symmetry, have more storage and have another surface upon which you can place a changing display of objects. This is the area that I would utilise for a mirror.

Such great suggestions from Julie, I think the key with natives is that they're quite sparse, so risk looking ratty and messy very easily. To counteract that, it's important to plant en masse, and only stick to natives (so remove the roses), so cluster say 3 of the same plant together for impact, and repeat with half a dozen types of different shapes/colours/textures/heights. The great pictures Julie has shown such as this one below that I love, show this done really well with mixing texture and colour - spiky, strappy broad leaves (deep green), soft fine leaves (grey green). Then these lower plantings can make your larger trees (existing) look more balanced. Of course, I don't know your location/climate with the suggestions below, so speak to your nursery... Use the existing larger feature trees (not sure whether you want to keep the existing tree in front of the house depending on its shape/proximity to the house), but your bottlebrush etc are great) then arrange the others around each of them to create a couple of nice focal point and more impact. Try westringia, lomandra, native violet, acacia limelight, dianella... Add in a beautiful Gymea Lily as a statement piece too if suitable climatically. And being a corner block it would be nice to plant more along the side/corner to delineate your property a little more nicely. Maybe replace the agapanthus with a row of woolly bush or even water gum (planted further away from the house at the side. It might even be worth getting a landscaper in to help with arranging them, perhaps ask at your local nursery, and then you do all the dirty work - actual marking out, digging and planting yourself.

Kitchen cabinets colour too dark,can you have more window? If you have large window then your kitchen floor and cabinet colour are good,but if you can’t have larger window/ whatever is the case/, then I would have lighter grey,whitish floor or timber floor like “ash white”, the bench are dark,all is dark according the photo. I don’t know where do you live but Houzz gives us much photos of much kitchen,maybe you will find your kitchen without having financial need or changing the lay- out Good luck
