Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of Neo-expressionism and Minimalist Flat Illustration, with distinct Contemporary Digital Art characteristics. It presents an aesthetic that sits between retro and modern, resembling refined hand-drawn quality while maintaining the clean edges of digital art. The style draws from Japanese woodblock prints in its color contrasts and compositional simplicity, while incorporating Nordic design's geometric sensibility and color schemes to create a unique visual language.

Style Characteristics

The main style characteristics include: bold yet limited color palette with a particular affinity for red against softer neutral tones; simplified but precise shapes and silhouettes; gentle shadow work creating subtle dimensionality; and smooth, uniform textures that evoke a sense of calm warmth. Each scene is reduced to its most essential elements without sacrificing nuanced expression. This style impresses through its visual clarity while conveying rich emotional atmospheres through carefully selected colors and lighting details.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Soft Gradients: Pairing with this word enhances the fluidity of color transitions, giving the work a more dreamlike and harmonious visual quality
  • Textured Shadows: Using this word reinforces volumetric presence and spatial layering, adding dimensionality to simplified forms
  • Contrasting Tones: Adding this element improves the visual impact of the composition, making key elements stand out while maintaining overall balance

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for children's book illustrations, brand identity design, lifestyle app interfaces, indie game art, mood-driven social media content, and commercial advertising illustrations requiring warmth, simplicity and artistic sensibility. Its balanced feel and emotional coloring also make it ideal for wall art in cultural spaces such as cafés and bookstores.

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
