This Concept provides an overview of recent developments of DNA‐based nanofabrication and discusses its potential applications in the area of surface engineering. The first part of the paper discusses the strength and limitations of existing DNA‐based nanofabrication methods. The second part highlights several examples of surface engineering applications involving nano‐ and microscale surface textures. It finishes with a discussion of the opportunities and remaining challenges of applying DNA‐based nanofabrication in surface engineering applications.
