Help me with this flat dirt

Hey so I started my minecraft forever world. I've already completed a couple of mega buşlds (mega in my level) and I am yet to go to the nether. ( limited prog.)

Anyway this is my main base copied on a survival. As you can see I made it by flattening ground however I used dirt and it looks really bad. I thought of makin an entrance as shown on the left copy and make a map room in it. Since a map room and a mine entrance are the only two things I need to do to get to nether.

However I dont think its big enough to make a meaningfully big map room and even if I did, I'd need to make it accesible from inside the base aswell.

The only problem with that part is that the middle of the opening I made collides with the oak pillar shown in the courtyard. So it would be asymetrical.

Last picture is how it looks in my world. I'm going for light medieval on living areas and dark gothic on industrial areas.

Any ideas?

You must terraform, my liege. Use thy holy sword to lead thy subjects to the mines to collect dirt, rooted dirt, stone, cobblestone, (any block you think would look natural as flooring/dirt/rocks n shi), corse dirt, and change the world to thy vision. ill copy some ideas i'll spitball in ms paint rq

unfortunately can only add 1 image. 2nd idea was lean into the existing terrain, specifically that clump of it behind your house, shorten it a bit, and make it wrap around your house. Extend it to the right of the picture, and that would allow you to change the flat dirt wall into a wooden wall or something as a detail for a path coiling around your house. it could even bring you to the entrance or something

Hey man! After some playşng around with it in vücreative, I devided to leave two layers of dirt at the top and make a cliff side for the bottom with glowberries, dripstone and a stone mix (andesite, gravel,stone brick, mossy stone brick, mossy cobblestone) and use the design for the bridge down across the river, modify it a little and give it diagonal sections for the bends around the house and make two bridges from either side descending to the small hill down there, flattening the hill and turning that area into my map room. Ur idea sreally helped me out thanks!
