In article number 2100133, Kyu‐Jin Cho and colleagues establish a 4D printing strategy of shape memory polymers that can program continuous levels of shape‐recovery strain by controlling a single printing parameter. The resulting 4D printed architectures are characterized by functionally represented shape and curvature profiles, which leads to the reproduction and shape modification of arbitrary complex 3D surfaces in discretized form.
