Default Creative ideas for wall

I'm going to put up a 1.2m high by 7.5m long wall at the back of the
garden. I'm going to use regular-sized house brick for the face of the
wall. I've not chose the brick style yet.

I was thinking about putting brick lights in every so often.

Anyone any creative ideas so I don't end up with a boring wall? Thanks.


Paint. Could be anything from different blocks of colour to finding a
local artist to create a mural. Someone round here (admittedly in a
bricked up house window) has had a trompe l'oeil on the outside on the wall
showing a garden (but you're looking at the house from the outside).

Mirror.
