That tree was so big, so you produced lots of timber, that can already sum a lot here! The corners look great, as if i can sit on the ledge and put my cup of coffee on the new tile. The staggered stump is more artistic, look at Ikebana arrangements, they are staggered to mimic heaven, man, earth!

It would be worse to lose a house! We had to do the same thing to a box elder only we left half of it and now it is the ugliest suckering stump ever but, oh well, the birds love it. Your new bed looks great and the tiles on your corners are beautiful.
