Need great ideas for a Japanese type garden?

I have created a new area in my back yard and plan on putting a large Asian statue in the center of this area. I am working on an area behind where the statue will sit to plant bamboo in a controlled area. I am fixing a sort of tunnel and plan to put wisteria on it, to grow over the wire tunnel. I would like ideas on other plants to use in this area to enhance the statue and give an air or serenity. This will be a sort of *secret* garden, as you won’t be able to see it all until you go through the tunnel.

I have thought about some peonies, and plan to use white gravel and have black enamel benches in it. I would like to use reds mostly, to give more impact to the overall effect.

I am in zone 6

Azaleas would be nice. For a low growing tree that has that Asian look is the Mimosa. Most Asian Garden don’t have alot of flowers in them, they are mostly evergreens is interesting shapes. For your “RED” how about placing high glazed red pots filled with small evergreens that you shape into your own style of Bonzais.
