Versatile methods are described for the fabrication of micrometer‐scale particles with defined shape, ferro‐ or paramagnetic properties, and amphiphilic Janus surface chemistry. Examples of their utility include measuring the rheological properties of complex, two‐dimensional fluid interfaces and reversible, directed self‐assembly at fluid interfaces.
