We develop a theory of thermodynamic instabilities for complex fluids composed of many interacting species organised in families. This model includes partially structured and partially random interactions and can be solved exactly using tools from random matrix theory. Depending on the parameters of the model, we detect and characterise analytically family condensation, family demixing at finite critical density, and random demixing. We apply the theory to phase separation of proteins triggered by a change of pH.
