Looking for tips or just ideas

My next playthrough is "a New Empire" where I'm going to obtain the highest titles and take the shattered empire off the planet. Having a hard time coming up with a base concept if you will. I'd like to use the landscape as much as possible instead of a mega structure or just square rooms every where. I'm at a loss for now, I keep restarting and switching maps

Wondering if you guys have any tips, or ideas. Feel free so PM me with any bases you think fit that description...

Killbox ideas

This is my first game in quite a while so I'm not really good at it. But anyway I'm about to set up a wall around the area I want my base to be and I want to set up(preferably on the west and east walls) kill boxes or the like to have raids be concentrated on only two areas. How should I do it? or maybe should I do it on only one side, or maybe not at all?

Also maybe it will be helpful to state that the diameters are 93x95 with the walls made of slate blocks. Should I expand the area? shrink it? or maybe use a different material?

My 2nd ever colony! Thoughts?

This is my 2nd colony after I broke the save of my first one with mods (oops!) and the first one I've made with ideology installed! What would you do to improve it? What do you think of it for a (mostly) new player's colony? (Cassandra Classic, Adventure story, 5 years!)
Some small notes: Top left box is intended as infestation bait, & if you're wondering about weird looking mountains it's because I have the terraforming mod installed. The "MVP" box is for my favorite pets of ours, lol. This colony had a LOT of re-arranging, since I neglected to plan the layout before building, and didn't take into account how many colonists I would end up having either..

Thoughts/Ideas of my colony?

I'm a new player and this is how my colony's base looks like after 2 years. (I didn't watch any guides or anything, lol) Please tell me what you think of it and how I can improve it, I have no idea what I'm doing :) ^((also the golden throne is cheated in as well as a few marble things))
