i have got this yard area in my new condo. washing machine will be at a corner and planning to put my fridge there too to maximise the kitchen space.

Was initially planning to tile up the entire surrounding walls. But is there any alternative to tiles? Maybe a special paint?

so it will look like a mini kitchen

bcse i am also planning to have a slab/table at one side where the rice cooker, boiler, airfryer will be located.
