A good climber for a sunny spot is Solanum. It gets lots of lovely mauve/blue flowers. It's evergreen aswell. It likes a sunny spot though.

Well I don't like lawns so I would tell you to get rid of it and plant some nice shrubs instead. I find lawns a lot of work and they always look boring to me. But that's only my opinion.

Maybe a nice shrub in the centre with some sort of path/slabs/gravel around it. And then some lower shrubs around the edges

Personally I find the upkeep much easier. You could put some colourful spring bulbs under the shrubs. .......What would you like to put there ? It's up to you really.

Or you could put slabs there - somewhere nice to sit with a cuppa. Some shrubs with bulbs in spring, and maybe some herbaceous perrenials for summer around the slabs... I don't know really, but I hope you can draw from these little suggestions.
