Graphical Abstract

Multicompartment nanostructures, in which interactions between the self-assembled objects are instrumental in determining their properties, are described in the Communication by J. van Esch and co-workers on page 2063 ff. These nanostructures, which include self-assembled interpenetrating networks and vesicle configurations that coexist with hydrogel fibers, are easily prepared by exploiting the independent self-assembly of surfactants and low-molecular-weight hydrogelators.
