Anyone with a wide shallow garden?

Who wants to show me their garden? I'm struggling for inspiration

Mine has a small patch of grass patio to the side and hedge the other

Hi, I used to have a wide shallow garden. It’s useful to use the diagonals. Have focal points in the corners. also if there is a fence at the back to have it well covered with plants that go in and out, so you can’t see where it ends. I would also try to keep the lawn in proportion to the house not the garden , don’t be afraid to have flower beds and don’t let them be too small, and putting some transparent plants between the house and the lawn adds a veil of mystery to the whole thing.
I swapped my wide shallow garden for a long narrow one , and oh dear me the walking!
So remember, there are pluses and minuses for both types.

And triangular beds at each corner of the lawn can work really well, stops those horrid narrow borders.

We've a wide but short garden, were in a bungalow so large plot but frustratingly the building is smack in the middle, both front and back gardens are the same size.
The garden is broken up into rooms with circles and planting around and kinda divided in half with a pergola. In a few years I'll be adding french doors to open in the middle of the plot under the pergola, the pergola will lead to a wall and fireplace so the shortest part has a focal point, planting either side which then divides the garden into essentially 2 either side. I've a sketch somewhere of the original design but it's going to take about 3 years to complete due to cost of the hard landscaping
