ᐅ Stone wall made of natural stone or stone tiles? Living room / kitchen

I really like natural stone walls in living spaces, like in these pictures of stone walls:


Does anyone have experience with this?
Do you use regular bricks or specially made stone veneer panels?
How do you keep something like this clean (for example, is it also suitable as a backsplash behind a cooktop in the kitchen)?
I’m also interested in the costs for these types of stone walls...
Thanks in advance!

In Post 22, I mentioned dispersion adhesive. The one you linked is such a type. It can definitely be helpful to read technical data sheets. Sorry for saying it this way, but I’m starting to notice a certain resistance to advice. Plenty of suggestions have been made from which you can find solutions.
So, to conclude once again: either you install it with a substructure, or you glue the material directly onto the wall, accepting that you will have to painstakingly sand off or skim coat the adhesive later. Then your landlord will let you know how they want it removed, comprende?

I already mentioned that this is not my area of expertise. I understand that dispersion adhesives are strong stuff, my friend. Therefore, dispersion adhesive is not an option for me.
What was unclear to me was whether the adhesive shown in the link is also a dispersion adhesive. That is not clear to me from the technical data sheet. So this post of mine is still justified.
Thank you very much.

Because this is not clear to me from the datasheet. Actually, the datasheet does state that it is a dispersion adhesive. If I responded somewhat harshly or used the wrong tone, I apologize. Sometimes you end up writing a lot and get the impression that the person asking the question hasn’t understood anything or has not properly considered the answers, so no hard feelings.
How do you want your small installation to look? Should it hold firmly until you decide to move out, or should it fall off by itself? All adhesives suitable for stones naturally have very strong bonding strength (mostly dispersion adhesives). Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to support the weight. Therefore, it will be difficult to remove it from the wall later. Having wallpaper underneath won’t help either. In fact, wallpaper can be more of a safety risk if it’s not applied properly. In that case, the covering might come off quickly as well. You can either invest a bit more effort beforehand (furring strips and OSB or drywall on top) or do it afterwards. However, doing it afterwards involves much more work and is not very nice.

Sometimes there are situations where you write extensively and get the impression that the person asking the question does not want to understand or fails to properly acknowledge the answers, so no hard feelings.No worries... it’s all good. I also don’t like it when the other person doesn’t want to understand. So I can relate to your reaction based on your impression.
I must have really been missing something—I can’t find that note in the datasheet (even using the search function). But it’s not a big deal now that I know.
Many thanks.
The topic of "cladding panels" is closed for me. I would now choose a non-woven wallpaper.
There is a wide range of options available online. Can anyone recommend a non-woven wallpaper with a stone look that doesn’t appear artificial? (Price is not an issue).
In my experience, many wallpapers clearly look "painted" at first glance.
(or would it be better to start a new thread?)
