Any contemporary design ideas for our 20x7 deck/entryway?

last year

last modified: last year

We originally had two plants and planters but one got damaged so we have one left. We were thinking about adding furniture along the wall but would love to get some ideas of how others would decorate this space? For context, we do not plan to spend time in this area but would like to spruce this space up as it's empty.

Initial thoughts: A 5 ft bench between two plants. Pictures below in comments!

How about pics from the street or in front of the house.

Those pics have no context no matter how many you post .I need to see how this space relates to the whole house .

A long bench with a couple plants would be nice. If you walk through there in the evening, some night lighting would be good. Since there is a lot of shade, you might want to do string lights on the rafters with the solar panel on top to catch the sun. A piece of art, fountain, or perhaps a light display in the corner where that half barrel is to accent the door there would be nice. If you are into plants, you could do railing planters with cascading and upright plantings in them.
