Abstract In the extant lifeforms, self‐sustaining behaviors refer to various well‐organized biochemical reactions in spatial confinement, which rely on compartmentalization integrate and coordinate molecularly crowded intracellular environment complicated reaction networks living/synthetic cells. Therefore, biological phenomenon of has become an essential theme field synthetic cell engineering. Recent progress state‐of‐the‐art cells indicated that multi‐compartmentalized should be developed obtain more advanced structures functions. Herein, two ways developing hierarchical systems, namely interior (organelles) integration communities (synthetic tissues), are summarized. Examples provided for different construction strategies employed above‐mentioned engineering ways, including spontaneous vesicles, host–guest nesting, phase separation mediated multiphase, adhesion‐mediated assembly, programmed arrays, 3D printing. Apart from exhibiting functions, also applied as biomimetic materials. Finally, key challenges future directions regarding development systems summarized; these expected lay foundation creation a “living” well provide larger platform new materials future.
