Create Infinite Visual References with Mood Boards in Krea 2

Krea 2 has introduced a dedicated mood board feature designed to give creators more granular control over the aesthetic direction of their generated images. Unlike traditional style reference tools that limit users to a handful of files, this update allows for an unlimited number of visual inputs to guide the model. This shift moves away from surgical style transfer toward a more holistic interpretation of visual themes and color palettes.

What's new

The primary change is the removal of the four-image cap previously found in Krea’s style reference system. Users can now upload dozens of images into a single mood board, which the model analyzes to extract recurring patterns, textures, and lighting schemes.

Key technical improvements include:

• Unlimited image uploads for style and composition guidance.
• A more complex interpretation system that balances multiple visual inputs rather than strictly mimicking one or two.
• A dedicated workspace within the Krea 2 interface to organize and manage these reference collections.
• Improved blending logic that prevents the final output from becoming a cluttered mess when too many references are used.

How it fits your workflow

For directors and concept artists, this tool replaces the manual process of trying to describe a complex "vibe" through text prompts alone. Instead of spending hours engineering a prompt to capture a specific 1970s cinematic grain and neon color palette, you can simply drop in a collection of film stills and let Krea 2 interpret the common threads. It functions similarly to the reference features in Midjourney or Adobe Firefly but offers more flexibility in the volume of data you can feed the generator.

Editors and colorists can use this to maintain visual consistency across a series of assets. If you are building a pitch deck or a storyboard, you can feed the tool your existing location scouts and wardrobe references to ensure every generated frame feels part of the same world. This reduces the trial-and-error phase of image generation, making it a more predictable part of the pre-production pipeline. It acts as a bridge between the abstract idea in a creator's head and the final rendered output.

What it costs / how to try it

Mood boards are available as part of the Krea 2 suite. Users can access the feature by logging into their account on the Krea website and selecting the mood board option within the generation interface. Pricing tiers for Krea vary based on generation limits and commercial usage rights.
