About this prompt

We made the picture above with this prompt on Google Flow. It has an architecture photo style, warm afternoon light and a calm, grand mood, and it sits in the Architecture collection.

The frame is 16:9 (wide), and our original measures 1376 × 768 pixels. That shape is an exact fit for YouTube thumbnails, X posts and desktop wallpapers; LinkedIn posts and Facebook posts take it with a small crop. It was made with thumbnails in mind.

Make this prompt your own

Subject
The opening words, “A modern sandstone library building wrapped around a square courtyard with a shallow reflecting pool and a single neem tree”, are the subject. Swap in your own subject and keep the rest to get a new picture in the same look.
Light
The light is set by “warm afternoon light”. For another look, swap those words for “bright daylight” or “dusk light”.
Rules
“No text” at the end keeps stray letters out of the picture. Keep it, then put a title on top yourself if you need one.

Same theme, another look

In other light: Colonial Railway Station (golden hour), Treehouse Stay (morning light) and Bamboo Pavilion (golden light).

In another style: Haveli Courtyard (architecture), Solarpunk Green City (futuristic concept) and Glass Villa on a Cliff (architectural photography).
