For some reason I feel like they're suitable for an indoor/outdoor room, like a sun room. They don't feel "outdoorsy" to me - I think I prefer more natural looking stones on the ground outside, like large flagstone or slate pavers.
We had a large concrete patio poured at our old house, and we had them lightly stamp the concrete with these very subtle fossil shapes and add some small ripples and slightly irregular edges to make it look more like stone - that was my favorite patio ever. It was all very subtle but "felt" more natural than concrete usually does. I'd like to do the same at my "new" house but there's already a (standard) concrete pad in the way.

Personally the only one I truly like is the on point squares
(the red tile in the group of 4 colors).
Than I would only use it as a border around a field of plain tiles.
There is a Mfg rep (he works out of our offices), and this is one
of the NEW Mfg he reps for. These tiles go for about $25 sq ft
(I think that is what he told me last week).

Many patios are extensions of the interior just as many bring the outside in. I have a friend who has tiles in different designs and they look like a quilt on a bed. Her design has 2 different borders. It's quite pretty but not really that busy. She is very artsy. She and her husband bought plain pavers and used paint for concrete/cement, then did their own design.
