So you’re going to put the pipes through the wall and you need ideas on how to hide them or make them look neat?

Where will the come out? Will they run up the wall? Horizontally? Down to the ground?

You're looking for inspiration to drill a hole ?

How thick is the wall, what's it made off (Stucco is the external render not the construction material). I would assume drilling 4 x 2" holes and then either linking them together with a hammer and chisel of just passing the pipes straight through as is.

PS: for inspiration my house is like a pepper pot:) you can't have enough reef pipes going through your walls......

Horizontal, stucco on one side, drywall inside
do you care if the pipe is seen or not seen? In short, are you just looking for the penetration from interior to exterior to look good with pipe being seen, or are you looking to hide the pipe and penetration?

If you did not mind seeing the pipes, but wanted a good weatherproof seal, the link below has those. My company uses these for numerous things and they are tough. I have personally used them for things around the house and to seal the penetration where I have a 150 amp breaker run through schedule 80 that goes from my garage to my shop. Silicone behind the mounting ring, slide pipe through, and good to go. Can be used inside and outside at same time if you so desire. Or just use outside and fix drywall around inside pipe.

On the stucco side use non shrinking silicone and paint it to match your stucco.
On the sheet rock side they make escutcheons and flanges (trim rings)
