There are a company called brickslips ireland who supply all the materials you are looking for , I haven't bought from them myself , but have done a few buildings using these products, are you planning to do the job yourself ?

Planning to do it myself but if it's too tricky or expensive I'll knock it on the head. Even something as simple as wallpaper, if it looked good I'd be interested.

you can get samples of vinyl wallpaper to try out at home - example below - is it a big wall or just a small panel ? I know someone who has similar to what I linked below and it looks fine - they have it in their home office

It's a fairly large wall, 15 ft by 9 feet. I'm thinking wallpaper is probably easiest route to go?

the “bricks” can also be purchased as as ceramic blocks- maybe 60cm x 30xm or similar in some places - so it’s not like you have to plaster up the bricks one by one - obviously there’s the permanency aspect of wall tiles to consider - I say get samples of both and then decide - is it just yourself that will be looking at this as a home office or is it an entertainment room or something else? Obviously with tiles you need to assess your own skills in this area

Cheers, I'd be worried about quality there.

If it's not as expected you get full refund and probably be told not to bother returning it, worse case scenario you get free returns up to 90 days after purchase.
