What is Simplified Figuration SREF style

This style is defined by its bold use of flat, contrasting color fields and highly simplified, almost graphic representations of subjects like portraits, landscapes, and still life. It eschews fine detail for essential form, often featuring visible texture reminiscent of screen printing or gouache application. When crafting a prompt for Midjourney using this style, focus on defining the simplified shapes and the specific, muted color palette to achieve this contemporary, graphic aesthetic. The result often feels both nostalgic and modernist, emphasizing composition and color harmony over photorealism.

Simplified Figuration Prompt Ideas

  • A portrait of an astronaut, highly abstracted into large blocks of color, stark contrast, similar to Patrick Caulfield
  • Minimalist still life of three domestic objects on a table, limited color palette of burnt orange, navy blue, and cream, strong graphic shadows
  • Abstract landscape composition made entirely of horizontal color bands, muted earth tones, textured brushwork
  • A simplified depiction of a vintage telephone booth, thick outlines, flat planes of color, urban background implied

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.
