Here's a house from page 34 of 260 Idea Book, that uses those walls:

You can always make a bigger version of this :)

I've actually had a hard time fitting these in before as well. Its rather difficult to get the rest of the structure to match. Its one of the many reasons that I've virtually stopped using those wall pieces.

I would suggest making the rest of the house out of yellow and black, in some fashion. Since I have no idea what your collection is like, I can't give specific examples. I would sugget experimenting with various configurations and see what looks best.

As you said, a very hard part to use, but you pulled the look off pretty well. Good job.

Your result is quite nice Kevin, I must try and obtain some of those walls for myself. :)

Nice job, Kevin. Looks very good. Are those walls custom? I don't remember seeing a white version before.

Well, they look good. I wish Lego had made them in white.
