Organizing nanoparticles into supercrystals comprising multiple structures remains challenging. Here, we achieve one assembly with dual structures for Ag polyhedral building blocks, comprising truncated cubes, cuboctahedra, truncated octahedra, and octahedra. We create two micro-environments in a solvent evaporation-driven assembly system:
