What is Monochrome Minimalism SREF style

This aesthetic emphasizes severe reduction of color, focusing almost exclusively on black, white, and shades of grey. It utilizes strong contrast, sharp focus, and often sparse or conceptual compositions to highlight form, texture, and intricate linear details. In Midjourney, this style is excellent for creating moody portraits, stark landscapes, or conceptual still lifes where shadow play and graphic impact are key, often producing results that look like fine art photography or detailed ink drawings when the correct prompt is used.

  • Sparse, dead tree silhouettes in a vast field of tall dry grass, blown-out white sky, extreme high contrast, stark composition
  • Minimalist still life, a single delicate black vine growing in a clear glass flask filled with water, roots visible underwater, soft backlighting
  • Abstract geometric pattern constructed from obsidian blocks, sharp edges, deep black material against brilliant white background, hard light

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a Midjourney Style Reference (--sref)?

A Style Reference, or SREF, is a powerful feature that lets you use the aesthetic of a reference image to influence the style of your generations. Our library provides the direct SREF code for thousands of styles.

How do I understand and use the Aspect Ratio (--ar) parameter?

The --ar parameter controls the aspect ratio of your image. For example, --ar 16:9 creates a widescreen image. Our guide provides a full list of supported ratios.

Why is my SREF code not working?

Ensure you are using a compatible Midjourney version (v6 or newer) and check for typos. Sometimes, strong keywords in your prompt can override the style; try reducing the style weight (e.g., --sw 250).

Can I use this SREF code with a Character Reference (--cref)?

Yes, --sref and --cref can be used together. This is a powerful combination to maintain a consistent character while applying a consistent style.

Which versions support style reference?

Style Reference is compatible with Midjourney versions 6, 7, and Niji 6.

What is the default image size for Midjourney V7?

Midjourney V7 creates upscaled images at 2048 x 2048 pixels for the default 1:1 aspect ratio.

What is the default style weight and what range can I use?

The default style weight is --sw 100. You can set it between 0 and 1000.
