Art Style Type

This SREF style primarily blends Neo-Noir, Low-key Luxury, and Sci-fi Atmosphere. It falls into the Neo-Noir category due to its dramatic light-shadow contrasts and mysterious ambience; the Low-key Luxury aspect is evident in the sophisticated light treatment and elegant color palette; while the Sci-fi Atmosphere emerges from the surreal lighting design and futuristic visual presentation.

Style Characteristics

The dominant characteristic of these images is the highly dramatic light treatment, using smoke or thin mist as a medium to make light appear as floating particles in space. Dark backgrounds contrast sharply with warm orange-yellow light sources, creating an immersive atmosphere. What makes this style particularly impressive is its unique "materialization" of light - light is no longer just an illumination element but becomes a visualized entity, seemingly tangible, adding a dreamlike and surreal quality to the images.

Style-Enhancing Prompt Keywords

  • Smoky Light Particles: Adding this keyword can enhance the particle-like quality of light in the air, making light appear more materialized and texturally rich
  • Atmospheric Cinematography: Using this can amplify the cinematic feel and dramatic quality, giving the light and shadows more narrative power and emotional expression
  • Misty Low-key Contrast: Adding this element can enhance the interaction between mist and light, creating richer visual depth with more layered textures

Recommended Application Scenarios

This style is particularly suitable for movie poster design, high-end brand advertising photography, concept art for sci-fi games or films, visual design for immersive experience spaces, and any creative context requiring mysterious, elegant, or surreal atmospheres. It's also excellent for abstract visual expressions of inner worlds, dreams, or memory fragments.

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.
