Supramolecular chemistry aims at constructing highly complex chemical systems and advanced materials by designing arrays of components held together by intermolecular forces. The implementation of molecular recognition and information offers means for controlling the evolution and the architecture of supramolecular entities and of organised phases as they spontaneously build up from their components through self‐organisation.
