Default Any suggestion for a foundation planting to replace shrubs? [zone 7-8]

McQualude said:
I have some ugly, scraggly, dull green shrubs that I plan to rip out,
but my wife is hesitant until we have something to replace them with;
she doesn't want a 'naked' house. I'm looking for some ideas that
will look nice year round and preserve our house's modesty. Thanks
for any ideas.

Oh, and I have small children so nothing that makes poison berries,
stinks, grows spikes or attracts ungodly amounts of bees.
We have all those plants already


Forgot to mention, zone 7-8.
