Graphical Abstract

Learning from classics: Crystal growth is a complex process, and there are multiple paths for going from dissolved ions to solid crystals. Highlighted herein is the application of traditional chemistry concepts to new ways for increasing the complexity of nanocrystals while maintaining a high degree of symmetry.
