Whichever one takes up less room for roads. I THINK they're square buildings right now, but it's kind of hard to tell in the pictures. Which way will they expand when you upgrade them?
Do you know about http://www.elvenarchitect.com/ ? That's a great playground to mess with your city without messing with your city.

Try to use both sides of a road ( not have them on the out skirts) also it helps to put culture on the out skirts then a building then a road.
My city when I was in Orcs, (click it to make it go bigger) and look how I have culture down the side then a building then a road on the top and side.

What they said, also I see you are starting to place expansions in different directions. Try to "square" your city asap, or you will regret it. As buildings change shape and orientation you will want the freedom that a square city provides.

The best layout is a very subjective thing. I can only suggest looking through many posts where people have supplied versions of their current or planned city. For example this is part of my city plan, but I already have and additional expansion and have not built some of the planned items because of the upcoming event.

The ear-shape design you can find here
https://en.forum.elvenar.com/index.php?threads/the-double-spiral-design.4262/
is very interesting. Very flexible i think, culture on the left, and magic academy, trader and main hall put into a corner with a 1x1 road linking them.
Here is my city (4 x 4 grid) at the moment

Re-iterating what others have said. You shouldn't ever have roads ringing your city. Run the roads down the middle of 2 sets of buildings to maximize efficiency.

This how my city look like, pure culture buildings need no road, mana producing buildings do need a road, space for buildings getting bigger is forseen, but elexir factories will have to be upgraded before workshops

Nice layout, but I'm curious; why no Shrine of Shrewdy? Wouldn't 3 armories +SSS be much better than 4 armories?

It is on my list, 4 armories and a bulwark is already nice, but with SSS it would even be better, I am the fighting kind of player, scoring general points every week
