    Recent achievements in the construction of surfaces with special wettabilities, such as superhydrophobicity, superhydrophilicity, superoleophobicity, superoleophilicity, superamphiphilicity, superamphiphobicity, superhydrophobicity/superoleophilicity, and reversible switching between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity, are presented. Particular attention is paid to superhydrophobic surfaces created via various methods and surfaces with reversible superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity that are driven by various kinds of external stimuli. The control of the surface micro‐/nanostructure and the chemical composition is critical for these special properties. These surfaces with controllable wettability are of great importance for both fundamental research and practical applications. Learning from Nature gives us inspiration for constructing functional surfaces with special wettability through the control of surface micro‐/nanostructure and chemical composition. In this Review, recent achievements in the construction of surfaces with superhydrophobicity, superhydrophilicity, superoleophobicity, and superoleophilicity, and their combinations, as well as switching properties between these states, are presented (see figure).
