Landscaping will help but not if you're planning two rows of hedge as shown in your photoshopped concept. I wouldn't plan for the gazebo to be out front either, as that plays into the concept you don't like of a two wing flat. The PS rendering doesn't fit the rest of the house at all. Just put a tiered fountain in the gap with lots of the lush tropical plants that will thrive in your locale and it will be fine.

Stick with the original plan.......hire a good landscape architect to help you pull it all together. The actually facade looks much better than what you have in mind in your photoshoped concept.

Good Morning Oguguom, I think you may be fretting for no reason! While not balanced to perfection, this is still a beautiful home in a lovely setting! I think you are just seeing it in a half finished state and panicing. You must continue on and enhance this home with your landscape design to put the focus on the part of the house that is the main entrance. If you don't mind me saying, I think the rendering and the landscape design is way less what this house deserves. I like decos (above) suggestion of the fountain but can we take it a step further and include a circular driveway, clusters of palm trees, blasts of color in plant material, plant a screen around the water tank and include a driveway pad for guest parking on the left under the big tree that is already there. Don't lose those big trees! I can see this house and yard complete and to perfection with a proper landscape design! A place that you will be proud of...it's gorgeous and has incredible potential! Don't give up and don't try to fix this yourself! Your rendering appears to be made by an amateur, please do yourself a favor and hire a competant/imaginative landscape company to draw a plan and then have it executed locally with supervision. Please don't try to save money now, people do this often and end up unhappy with the final result instead of thrilled...this is the time where an investment in a competant professional can totally turn your project around and make you feel satisfied and delighted with the home you have built and not regret the outcome of your obvious quest for a dream home! Best of Luck to you! Jo McKeown/Great Spaces! Atlanta GA.

Sorry, but your add-on only makes things worse. Will the water tank stay there? Seems such a shame to block that beautiful big window.

I agree with everyone here, once the building is finished and you have landscaping done with emphasis on the entrance to the home, it will all fall into place nicely. Do seek out a competent and creative landscape designer to do the work for you, your house deserves nothing but the best.

The portion circled in red should be removed if possible.

Beautiful house you just need a professional landscaper.

Do no more harm. Doesn't resemble a twin flat. Hire a professional landscaper and let it be.

Thanks every one. I will listen and adopt your great ideas.

I would suggest using natural stone bubbling rocks instead of a 3 tier fountain. I posted some examples but obviously go larger to suit the scale of your home. In your redering for landscaping ...the garden and lawn area looks cut off to you as the homeowner; boxed in and unusable and uninviting; same with boxing in the driveway....looks like your herding into the house instead of enjoying the expansiveness of your property. Get a landscape plan done....it will make a massive difference.

Few years, I was worried that the roofline of the seat-out extension of my house would undermine the look and feel of the house. The advise I received from rejoinders helped me to achieve a tasteful home.

The external colour theme and crack tiles belting blended with the leafy environment. Eighty percent of the compound is planted with airport grass. The two complementary paint colours used internally brightened the house. More so, the aesthetically designed furniture and the 3 metre crystal chandelier light suspended from the void area of the seating added more glamour to the house. Thanks for every piece of advice that helped me achieve
Y dream house .

This is the completed house
