Building up layered functional structures by assembling nano-layers of units is a typical approach in nanoarchitectonics. The discussion will be divided into the following categories: hard matter, hybrid, soft matter, and living object. For each target, several recent research examples will be given to illustrate the discussion. This paper will extract what aspects are considered important in the creation of the layered structure of each component. Layering strategies need to be adapted to the characteristics of the components. The type of structural precision and functionality required is highly dependent on the flexibility and mobility of the component. Furthermore, what is needed to develop the nanoarchitectonics of layered structures is discussed as future perspectives.
