I like that retaining wall. A raised flower bed. Nice touch. I also like the landscaping done on right side of photo. In short, i'm liking everything about the 'after' photo

Id have Raised planter boxes put in around the outside of our yard so my mother in-law doesn't have to spend hours on the ground with a bad back to do the gardening!..

If you are having a dishwasher installed, I really cannot see the need for two drainers. I needed to maximise on my bench space so I chose an Abey sink with 2 different sized bowls that came with a separate draining board, basket and chopping board. The draining board can sit on the bench when I need it, or can sit over the larger bowl and drain into the smaller one. Alternatively, the basket fits into the large sink if I want to leave anything to drain, but clear the bench top. The chopping board was a bonus that also fits over the sink bowls. When not in use, all items go into a drawer and out of sight. See a photo of the Lago here http://www.abey.com.au/store/kitchen/sinks/top-mount-sinks/ My sink -
