Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of Atmospheric Horror, Cyberpunk, and Cinematic Environmental photography. It belongs to these style categories because the images create a strong emotional atmosphere through specialized color treatment and light-shadow contrasts, establishing an uneasy, mysterious, and narrative-rich visual experience.

Style Characteristics

The most distinctive feature of these images is the unified teal-green color palette that creates a dreamlike yet eerie atmosphere. The scenes are generally dark with carefully placed light sources creating strong contrast. The image quality is extremely detailed, presenting an almost hyperrealistic effect with meticulous attention to surface textures and details. Compositionally, the style often employs close-ups contrasted with environmental elements, creating a visual tension that is both captivating and slightly unsettling. What makes this style impressive is how it successfully balances aesthetic appeal with emotional resonance.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Cinematic lighting: Enhances the dramatic light and shadow effects in the scenes, giving them more narrative quality and depth
  • Wet reflections: Adding this element can enhance the texture representation in the teal-green palette, making surfaces appear more realistic and layered
  • Atmospheric fog: Using this reinforces the mysterious quality of the environments while adding depth and dimensionality to the compositions

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for horror or sci-fi game concept design, thriller movie posters, atmospheric music album covers, visual narratives about environmental disasters or post-apocalyptic themes, and any visual project requiring strong emotional atmosphere. It's also excellent as a reference style for immersive experience design, such as VR experiences or immersive exhibitions.

More Tips


You can explore further by combining the following command:

  • --sv: There are six versions of the Style Reference feature in Midjourney version 7 when using images. Use the --sv parameter to choose between them. --sv 6 is default. --sv 4 is the old V7 sref model (prior to June 16, 2025). Using --sv 6 and --sv 4 may produce different style results.
  • --s: Default value is 100, can be set from 0 to 1000. The higher the value, the more detailed the image, and the closer the style may be to reality.
  • -niji 6: Using this command will give the image a more anime style.
  • --sw: Default value is 100, can be input from 0 to 1000. A higher value makes the style closer to the original.
  • You can now blend multiple --sref codes together (for example --sref 123 456 )
  • You can weigh individual codes or urls as follows --sref 123::2
