Image Generator

Create images from a prompt or a connected list of directions.

What to connect

Write a prompt or connect Text, Assistant or List to Prompt. An optional image goes to Reference.

Steps

  1. Describe the subject, materials, light and camera. Exterior, interior or landscape are directions you can express in the prompt.
  2. Open Settings to choose the model. Supported models show actual image quality or thinking levels, resolution and optional seed. Aspect ratio and image count stay under Advanced settings. The picker shows compatible inputs and the current base credit rate.
  3. Run and review the separate result cards. Open the compact result row to select an alternative or arrange all outputs again. Continue from the chosen image with a new Edit branch.

Two-storey timber house with a cantilevered upper volume. Warm larch cladding, black window frames. Golden hour, long soft shadows. Eye-level three-quarter view.

What you get
One or more images, with the selected image available downstream.
What to keep in mind
Connected prompts take precedence; a list can expand the batch and its cost. Auto uses GPT Image 2.5 Flare, or its Edit version when an image is connected. This is an input-based default, not a measured ranking of models.
Architectural prompt examples

Anatomy of a strong prompt

Name the subject and geometry, then materials, light and camera. Give each sentence a clear purpose.

Two-storey timber house with a cantilevered upper volume. Warm larch cladding, black window frames. Golden hour, long soft shadows. Eye-level three-quarter view.

Iterate on your building

With an image connected to Edit, describe the change and what should stay. Inspect the result: a preservation instruction is not a guarantee.

Same house, same view. Swap the facade to weathered red brick.

Describe the masked result

Describe what should appear in the painted region, including material and light. Available mask controls depend on the engine.

Floor-to-ceiling glazing with slim bronze mullions

Address image slots

In Edit, image 1 is the source. Image 2 and later are references in the displayed order. Explain each image's role.

Place the building from image 1 into the red-marked area of image 2. Match perspective and scale.

Separate design and representation

A design style describes the architecture; watercolor or marker describes its representation. State which should change.

Describe film movement

Use camera verbs: orbit, push-in, rise and reveal. Choose an available duration. For 3D, use a clear view and inspect inferred surfaces.

Slow cinematic orbit around the building, dusk light

Populate with intent

Describe who uses the space, how busy it feels, and the light the figures should match.

A lively number of people: families with children, two cyclists. Late afternoon light.
