They're okay
I would use them on one wall as an accent. I equate them with wall decals. You might get tired of seeing it after a while.

Have come across these before, they look a bit cheap and short lived to me, there is some textured gyprock (drywall I think its called in the US) available that looks a bit better but wallpaper and wood are better if you want to diffuse light and sound I think.
I wonder if you could cast your own plaster reliefs and apply those to the walls that are already up rather than ripping old wall down?
These were tests for some textured panels I'll come back to one day, have discovered the magical properties of old fashioned flour and water wallpaper glue after learning baking and trying to scrub dried dough off bowls.

The reclaimed
wood ones are really nice. They would make an awesome fireplace surround. The other colored ones sort of give me a headache.

It's disappointing
to me to see the name Kuba applied to an unsophisticated and inauthentic pattern. Here's a bit of the real thing:

The camel-to-dark chocolate palette is so lovely -- and the sem-regular geometries are wonderful.

definitely, had another look at the site, its really pretty bad Mark, you might feel after a while you lived in a beauty salon or a 'çlassy' brothel.
It just looks like cnc cut mdf by the looks of it, if you had an image and get it vectorised you could have a custom panel made, thin lines cut into plywood might look better and if you get tired of it you could plaster over it and paint it. There is a technique (Ruhlman used it I think) where plaster is used as an inlay in veneer, that looks smart.

ah sorry Mark, indeed you...
ah sorry Mark, indeed you did, dying to make a couple of jokes but I'd get in trouble.
I'm glad you decided against the panels. How about commisioning a mural?

You can get these coin pouches made from kangaroo scrotums actually, maybe niceguy has one.
No, I'll leave the jokes, there are 2 obvious ones if you think about it.
