A simple hydrophobic‐affinity‐derived assembly approach to pack graphene sheets into a nanoporous foam structure has been developed. Nanoporous graphene foams with the highest pore volume and large surface area are obtained. The pore diameter of the graphene foams can be finely adjusted from the mesopore to the macropore range by employing spherical templates with different sizes.
