of course, this solution is not perfect, but it would solve some problems ... 

The red additional frame is ugly. ????

If the structures concrete posts start to show movement at GL then round posts the same colour would still leave it aesthetically pleasing, no need for the horizontal one.

Again, I think hanging planters on the back of each rafter will counter-balance it nicely..........

as i said, it is not perfect. but better ugly (your worlds) and safe than sorry ...

(btw. the red colour on the picture is only for to make it visible for the op)

 

from the picture it is hard to see, maybe the construction can be symmetric, straight forward

and can be kept very simple. the additional steel construction has to be black. the construction

would be hardly visual because of the many plants hanging on the whole construction ...

 

on the other hand 2 round posts (with footing) somewhere in the no mans land, that was maybe not

the idea of the ambitions design ... but maybe that is only the way i see it ...

 

good luck for the project to the op  ....

Yeah gather that just giving you a dig ???? but still the horizontal beam is not required.
