Help designing my kitchen garden

Hi all, I am converting the backyard into a veggie garden and would love some ideas as to the layout and best way of implementing pathways etc.

It is on grass so I am sheet mulching everything with cardboard first.

Here is the garden from above with the proposed beds and walkways. On the right side is a 60cm bed against the fence that will be a bed covered in mulch and rocks a few native grasses + Okra (the point of this bed is to provide some shelter for the native skinks that live in the yard.

Then 40cm pathways & three 1.2m beds, with just veg and mulch.

Then against the other fence on the left I am a bit unsure. I was going to put okra also, but the bed ends up as 1.2m (but reach only from one side). Any ideas here?

Other thing is that the yard slopes down a little.

As far as sun goes it gets 5hrs at the top (I will put herbs there) and tapering to about 8-9 as it you get further down the slope. Sub tropical region.

Any feedback would be great!
