Abstract
Self-assembly is one of the crucial mechanisms allowing to design multifunctional materials. Soft hybrid materials contain components of different nature and exhibit competitive interactions which drive self-organisation into structures of a particular function. Here we demonstrate a novel type of a magnetic hybrid material where the molecular tilt can be manipulated through a delicate balance between the topologically-assisted colloidal self-assembly of \rev{magnetic nanoparticles} and the anisotropic molecular interactions in a liquid crystal matrix.
