Textile Encoding Inspired by Langer Lines via Elastically Graded Embroidered Tessellations
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A standard embroidery machine can encode skin‐like directional mechanics into stretchable fabrics that, when worn, augment the wearer's skin. Zigzag stitch patterns, inspired by skin collagen structure, pack extra slack in threads that, when tessellated, mimic Langer lines.

Cloud Inspired White and Grey Plasmonic Metasurfaces for Camouflaged Thermal Management
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by clouds' role in Earth's thermal management, this work presents disordered plasmonic metasurfaces that mimic their radiative effects. The white metasurface enhances backscattering, acting as a cooling layer with camouflage properties.
