We report the magnetically-facilitated scaffold-free assembly of lung tissue mimicking two-layered multicellular clusters. Polymer-stabilized magnetic nanoparticles were deposited on surfaces of viable human cells (A549 and skin fibroblasts), allowing the formation of two-layered porous tissue prototypes.
