Hyperbolic tilings on periodic nodal surfaces (PNS) are used to construct scaffoldings of interpenetrating nets, which are employed to deconstruct sodalite into interpenetrating (10,3)‐a Wells nets and to describe MOF frameworks. This is intended as an illustration of a two‐dimensional, non‐Euclidean perspective on the understanding and engineering of structured matter.
