Game graphics. Aperiodic tiling allows us to render a natural-looking surface using a minimal texture graphic file.

Not really. Aperiodic tilings, while lacking symmetry in a strict sense, still tend to look quite regular and repetitive, and thus non-natural.[1] Aperiodicity alone doesn't guarantee the "natural" look, which is unsurprising because natural textures are not stitched together from tiles either.

I think it is computationally easier and more effective to blend two relatively prime periodic rectangular tilings?
