Art Style Type

This SREF style blends elements of vintage photography, cinematic color grading, and neo-nostalgic aesthetics. It presents a film-like quality with warm, retro color tones while maintaining modern clarity and composition. The style resonates with 70s-80s film aesthetics but gives it a contemporary feel through digital processing, creating a carefully crafted "time capsule" effect.

Style Characteristics

The most striking characteristic of this style is its rich warm palette—golds, ambers, and browns dominate, creating a nostalgic and warm atmosphere. The light treatment is exquisite, presenting soft lighting effects reminiscent of dusk or candlelight. Textures are incredibly rich, with each object displaying tactile authenticity and depth. Additionally, this style consciously adjusts tones and saturation to a unified aesthetic, bringing different scenes and objects into the same visual world. This style is impressive because it evokes an ineffable sense of nostalgia while maintaining modern clarity and sophistication.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Golden Hour: Enhances warm golden tones and adds a sunset-like soft lighting effect to images
  • Cinematic Feel: Strengthens the narrative and dramatic qualities of the image, adding storytelling elements and emotional depth
  • Textural Detail: Elevates the details and material expression of object surfaces, making the image more realistic and three-dimensional, enhancing tactile quality

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for high-end brand marketing, premium alcohol or luxury goods advertising, retro-themed music album covers, fashion photography collections, boutique hotel or restaurant promotional imagery, and any creative project requiring a sense of history, quality, and depth. It's also excellent for storytelling contexts such as movie posters, novel covers, or narrative social media content.

More Prompt Tips & Tricks


You can explore further by combining the following prompt command for MidJourney:

  • --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

This website stands out as one of the pioneering libraries I discovered in my AI art journey. What truly sets it apart is its comprehensive offering: not just unique style codes, but also intricate blends and full prompts. The inclusion of complete prompts is particularly valuable, as it's an artistic choice that many creators hesitate to share openly.

As a beginner in MidJourney, I struggled to create the style of images I envisioned and felt lost with keyword usage. This led me to create this website for sref codes and examples with prompts, aimed at helping newcomers easily generate high-quality images and find joy in their creative process.

There are many Midjourney Sref galleries online, but promptsref.com is my go-to resource. If you're looking for a comprehensive collection of Midjourney Srefs, this is the only website you need.
