Help! We need a backyard design.

This is our new backyard in Canberra, Australia and we need some help designing the backyard.
We plan on building a deck eventually (a little larger than the currently paved zone under the veranda) and opening up the back end of the house for indoor/outdoor living. We'd like to incorporate natives to attract birds, borrow from the surrounding tree scape to make it cohesive, keep a sizeable lawn, disguise the fence with planting, shade the western edge/left in the photos (ideally more so in summer, so maybe some deciduous trees there), and keep it all fairly low maintenance.
If you have any ideas, we'd love to hear them. Sketches of designs? Plant suggestions? etc.
Thanks Houzz community!!
