It's best to use many small rocks and lots of epoxy to achieve a unique look, rather than a large piece or two. Try to figure out what look you want to go for and start playing around with ideas. It usually takes many tries to get it right so don't get discouraged
Aquascaping is a lot of personal preference. There are a few things you need to keep in mind. You want good flow all the way around your tank. So that being said if you put your rock on the back wall you will have a lot of dead spots which makes it a pain in the butt to clean. I love the corner look against both the sidewalk and the back wall. I will have to add a powerhead in the near future. I hope this helps. Oh yeah I also went on YouTube and looked at aquascaping on there as well. Bulkreefsupply has a few videos on how to aquascaping and what things to keep in mind.

The key to keep in mind is that all space needs to be maximized and used most efficiently in a nano. I would start by looking at different tanks and deciding what types of features you like. Do you want as much free sand bed as possible? An island? A pillar? Arches? Or just a single structure with good viewing angles?
Once you know what kind of features you want, pick out rock judiciously. Try to choose individual rocks at a LFS that you can imagine being shaped into the structures you want. Once you got your rock, draw it out. Then try to build it outside the tank. When you are happy, try building it back inside your tank. Good luck.
