upper level (retaining wall) flanked by planters and vines.
Doesn't even look like an addition.
Wall so cool.

Is that fig vine? Elegant design... Arch trim would need to coordinate with pavers.
Integrate retaining wall into a kind of courtyard? Gabion and 3 ft of rip rap up top at the fence line. Gardenias and little lime hydrangeas nearer the ledge?
Check the layout. Grill, range, bev fridge, ice, dishwasher, and sink on north or south side? Possible integrate tesla solar shingles or power wall unit? Should it connect to the house or integrate into the new retaining wall?
Courtyard feel
Nice palette. Maybe less mottled. More subdued.
Stacked stone, arches, fans
Courtyard feeling
I like the idea of outdoor kitchen and bar.
The focal point is nice.
The combination of the cabinetry color and the countertops.
