Need landscaping help please

Hi brains trust,

We are looking to plant some hedging/trees along the front of our property to improve the street appeal and provide some privacy. A landscaper suggested a row of pleached Portugues laurel with lavender and grasses planted underneath. I'm worried that might look very bland and traditional and would love to hear some opinions? Another idea I was thinking was mixed hedging, so maybe two smaragd conifers followed by a standard azalea, then another two smaragd conifers, then another standard azalea and so on. The width of the yard is 11m. Would love to hear your thoughts? We're not very good gardeners and we're time poor so need something low maintenance. Thanks in advance!
