Recipe
The examples above were generated with Nano Banana Pro. The recipes below are written for GPT Image and Flux, so treat the settings as a starting point rather than the exact run.
A description in plain sentences. This is the version to start with, and it works on any current image model. Settings below are the ones we used on GPT Image; treat them as a starting point.
The recipe is the style, not the picture. Put your own subject in and the highlighted part of the prompt changes.
A single continuous landscape entirely surfaced in deep cobalt blue carpet, photographed as a built set. Sculpted organic terrain: rolling dunes, ribbon like ledges, cantilevered platforms and flowing staircases that spill off an edge and stop, with rounded arched openings cut into the mounds. Short fibre nap visible on every surface. One hard raking light from above, and everywhere it does not reach falls to pure black with no fill, so the voids read as flat black shapes rather than as shadow. Small figures in dark suits walk the terrain mid stride, scattered and not interacting, faces indistinct, each dwarfed by the ground. Elevated wide viewpoint. Every edge, stair tread and platform lip is the same blue as the surface it belongs to, with no white or cream trim anywhere. Only two values in the frame, saturated blue and black, no other colour, no text.

Tips
- 1The black is the second subject. Any fill light in the voids and the shapes stop floating.
- 2Keep the figures small and apart. The moment two of them meet it becomes a scene rather than a world.
- 3One blue only. A second hue anywhere and the carpet stops reading as one continuous material.
