Or from a description:

Create a style guide from [description of the look you want]

  • On new projects, Style Guide.txt is automatically set as default
  • You can right-click any text file and select Set as Default Style Guide

Use a Specific Style Guide for Image Generation

What to Include in a Style Guide

Define rules for:

  1. Shape language — geometric vs organic, simple vs complex
  2. Color — palette + mood; saturated vs muted
  3. Materials — realistic PBR vs stylized; clean vs weathered
  4. Lighting & camera — recommend "wide-angle + flat lighting" if planning to generate 3D models

Finally, state constraints (e.g., "no occupants").
