Ledger panels and rock face marble
Ledger panels are the most textured way to cover an outdoor wall. Each panel is a strip of stone pieces with a rough rock face, and a matching corner piece wraps outside corners. Carrara T in white, Royal Beige in warm beige and Graphite Black in black come as 6x24 rock face marble ledger panels with 6x12 corners, and they are tagged for outdoor walls, interior walls and pool and spa areas. The 6x12 corner pieces of all three are tagged for shower walls as well, so the same stone can wrap an outdoor shower. Calacatta Miele and Silver Sky come as 6x24 marble wall decos with a dimensional face, and Calacatta Miele has a matching corner. Paris honed limestone also comes as an Elevations wall deco in a raised pattern. A rock face wall catches low sunlight and shadow, which makes it a natural feature wall by a pool or a patio.
Which porcelain tiles are listed for outdoor walls?
Porcelain is the largest group here, and most of it is also tagged for outdoor floors, so a patio floor and the wall behind it can match. Concrete looks include Atelier in honed and lappato, Cemento in honed and textured, Runway and Coal, and marble looks include Carrara Blanco, Calacatta Bright, Bianco Crystal, Estatuario and Piedra Gris in matte and polished. Diamond White, Fashion Grey and Oyster Beige bring a terrazzo look, Carbon, Platino and Silver a soft fabric look, and Elefante, Certosa and the Brera glazed pieces a stone look.
Black and white porcelain for a modern exterior
Dark porcelain gives a modern facade or a garden wall a strong backdrop for plants and lighting. Slate comes in a 12x24 and a 4x12 Struttura Cesello, a 4x12 rectified piece and a 2x2 mosaic, Dark Matte in 24x24 and a 2x2 mosaic, Graphite Matte and Tempest Matte in 12x24, and Weathered Black Matte in 18x36. On the light side, Alpine comes polished in 24x24 and 24x48 and matte in 12x24, Romano White honed in 24x48, and Ecocem Melted Ice honed in 12x24. All of these are also tagged for outdoor floors and shower walls.
Wood look porcelain for exterior walls
Wood look porcelain gives an outdoor wall the warmth of wood cladding in a tile. Bamboo, Cognac, Rice, Cloud and Bark Wood come in natural finishes, Gris Ardoise, Peau D Elephant and Le Sable in matte, and Gris Argent and Brune Cafe in glazed. Gris Ardoise and Peau D Elephant also come as chevron mosaics. Every one of these is also tagged for outdoor floors.
Terracotta for garden and courtyard walls
Natural terracotta brings the color of fired clay to a garden or courtyard wall, and it is the most shape-rich group on this page. Star and cross, octagon, fan, arabesque and picket shapes give a wall a handmade, patterned face, while plain rectangles in Sunset, Rustico and Woodsmoke keep it simple. Most terracotta here is also tagged for outdoor floors, and more is in terracotta tiles. A terracotta wall suits a Spanish, Mediterranean or Mexican style house.
Zellige look and glazed tile outdoors
Glazed tile adds color to an outdoor wall. Fusion is a polished porcelain with a zellige look, in Bianco, Blue, Acquamarina, Smeraldo, Grigio, Antracite and Nero, and it is listed for outdoor walls and floors. Glazed ceramic accent tile, such as Pearl glossy, Myrtle Bloom, Obsidian and Verdant crackled, and Azure and Loto, comes in Barcelona, Ennis, Eren, Vienna, chevron and diamante shapes and is listed for outdoor walls, shower walls and backsplashes. Crackled glazes vary from piece to piece.
Can outdoor wall tile also go indoors?
Nearly every tile on this page is also tagged for interior walls, and most of it for shower walls, so one tile can run from an outdoor wall to a bathroom or a living room inside. Concrete look porcelain such as Atelier and Cemento is tagged for both outdoor and interior walls, and most Rustic Cotto terracotta shapes are tagged for interior floors as well.
Glass mosaics for pool walls
The glossy 1x1 glass mosaics here are tagged for pools as well as outdoor walls, shower walls and backsplashes. They come in Forest Blue, Blue Macauba, Lake Blend, Bluestone Blend and the darker Obsidian. A glass mosaic on a pool wall or a spa surround catches the light on the water. More pool tile is in outdoor tiles, along with outdoor floor tile and pavers.
