Climbers for Architecturalgarden

Hi all
Its been a while since I graced these pages..
My garden has been landscaped with my
beloved plastered block planters and plant choice
is now on my agenda.
As you can imagine the garden look is a minimilist
green garden with lights and sculptural elements
making good use of the varying stone colours etc etc
(Diarmuid Gavin on a calm day ;~)
Anyway as the header implies I am wondering about climbers
The garden is trellised on all sides and will get climbers
Which climbers will compliment my garden style?
(East-care always a good thing!)
I'd go for:
Big leaves: Actinidia klometica or chinensis or Vitis coignetiae
Strong structu Cononeaster horizontalis
Tropical look: Clematis armandii
Structural: Pyracantha trained with a single vertical stem and widely spaced
horizontal on wires. Clipped regularly to keep it very tight.
Eye catching: Very large flowered clematis - ideally white with a light
positioned to pick it out at night.
