Shaping trees/evergreens???

South Milwaukee, WI

I'm a new gardener :-) Please be simple for me.

I have a section along the west side of my house that I want to do up. It only gets 2 hours sun.

I really like the exotic look of trees and/or evergreens that are shaped to a ball at the top or spiral shape. So I'm particulaly looking for suggestions on what type to get that would take the shade?

I also love the Red Japanese Maples and wondered if there is a variety I could also keep trimmed to be a 2.5'-3' round top. Hoping for a lace leaf variety that would stay less than 6' tall.
