Question ID: 765303
Does anyone manufacture for purchase ceramic tiles that are aperiodic?
 (Similar to those shown here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_tiling; or just type "penrose
tiling" into Google Images)  I understand there are people who will
make custom tiles, but they always seem to have 90 or 45 degree
angles.  I'm not really willing to order (ie, pay for) something
wholly custom, but I would love to have these as part of my
renovation.

Hello marechaux1757-ga,

Here are some aperiodic tile manufacturers/vendors. Aside from Penrose
I?ve included some fractals and other non 90 or 45 degree designs.
Will any of these meet your needs?
