It is the purpose of this contribution to take the reader throughout a set of case studies which serve to illustrate an integrated approach which spans the design of functional π-conjugated precursors, their assembly into conducting crystalline solids of high purity, and the diversity and complexity of their crystal chemistry. This is accomplished by deciphering very many, entangled intermolecular interactions acting in unisson together with a rich low dimensional physics.
