Tailoring of the crystal size and morphology of metal–organic framework (MOF) materials and manipulation of MOF films is possible by the solvothermal synthesis route introduced here. A c ‐out‐of‐plane ZIF‐7 membrane (see figure) is obtained through evolutionary selection in a van der Drift–type growth originating from randomly oriented seed layers. Highly oriented MOF thin films are important as molecular sieve membranes.
