      A tiling \(T\) of the space \(\mathbb{R}^p\) is a countable family \(T=\{ T_1,T_2,\dots\}\) of closed sets called tiles such that \(\bigcup_{i=1}^\infty T_i=\mathbb{R}^p\) and \(\operatorname {Int}T_i\cap \operatorname {Int}T_j=\emptyset \) for \(i\not=j\). An isomorphism of \(T\) is a bijection from \(T\) to itself induced by an isometry of \(\mathbb{R}^p\). An aperiodic tiling is one that admits no translation isomorphisms. If for each bounded patch of an aperiodic tiling there exists a positive real number \(r\) such that a translation of the patch appears in any ball of radius \(r\) the tiling is called quasiperiodic. Some remarkable quasiperiodic tilings are obtained by projection, namely, the space \(\mathbb{R}^p\) is embedded into a higher-dimensional space \(\mathbb{R}^d\) and the points of \(\mathbb{Z}^d\) lying in a certain strip \(S\subset \mathbb{R}^d\) are projected to \(\mathbb{R}^q\). The authors present a description of the isomorphism classes of quasiperiodic tilings obtained by projection.
