Stabilized net : A molecular design approach to protect a 2D hydrogen‐bonding network with nonpolar shielding layers has allowed the fabrication of micrometer‐scale supramolecular vesicles in water (see picture). These hydrogen‐bond‐directed giant vesicles and their dispersions in aqueous media show high stability under various conditions.
