The beauty of complexity is reflected by the formation of hierarchical patterns on various length scales. As shown by J. Brickmann, R. Kniep et al. on p. 1851 , the simulation of the fibril pattern inside a fluorapatite‐gelatine nanocomposite superstructure reveals excellent agreement with TEM data and seems to be a key scenario for the development of biogenic composite shapes and architectures.
