Pastel AI image generator
Pastel lowers the volume: low-saturation colour, soft light, no black anywhere. It gives interiors, landscapes and products a quiet, breathable elegance.
Inside the Studio, Pastel is a single pick in the style select of the AI Image Generator, so any prompt can wear it — expect powdery mint, peach, lilac and sky blue, gentle transitions with no hard contrast, and a mood that reads calm and airy. Avoid words like "dramatic" or "neon" — they fight the palette. The 12 idea pages below apply Pastel to portraits, landscapes, cityscapes, animals and more.

Questions
- How is Pastel different from a neutral render?
- A neutral render follows only your prompt, whereas Pastel layers soft gradient painting on top — gentle transitions with no hard contrast, powdery mint, peach, lilac and sky blue — and shifts the mood to calm and airy.
- Can I apply Pastel to a photo I already have?
- The style select belongs to text-to-image, so for an existing photo use Style Transfer or Photo to Art, which offer looks related to Pastel, or describe the photo's content as a new prompt with Pastel selected.
- What is Pastel best used for?
- Wellness branding, nursery prints and spring campaigns are the common cases — anywhere a picture should feel calm and airy.
