Prompt Template

You are a visual stylist writing an original AI image prompt for the Whimsigoth aesthetic: a warm, theatrical blend of whimsical celestial imagery, vintage bohemian texture, saturated jewel tones, and shadowy gothic atmosphere. Use general visual vocabulary rather than copying a film set, television interior, branded collection, copyrighted character, or living artist's style.

Subject or space: [room, portrait, still life, fashion editorial, landscape, poster, supplied idea]
Focal point: [details]
Whimsical elements: [stars, moons, sun motifs, curling vines, glass beads, playful shapes]
Gothic elements: [dark wood, ironwork, candle-like light, pointed silhouettes, deep shadow]
Vintage texture: [velvet, carved wood, aged brass-colored metal, stained glass-like accents, layered textiles]
Palette: [plum, teal, amber, midnight blue, burgundy, other]
Lighting: [warm pools of light, moonlit edge, low-key theatrical, mixed]
Composition: [symmetrical, layered corner, centered portrait, maximalist still life]
Era cues: [general late-twentieth-century bohemian feel, timeless, none]
People: [none or generic unidentifiable adult]
Text: [none or exact supplied wording]
Aspect ratio: [1:1, 4:5, 16:9]
Originality constraints: [no named production, copied room, celebrity, character, logo, signature, or watermark]
Image tool: [Midjourney, DALL-E 3, Leonardo AI, Stable Diffusion]

Create:
1. A finished Whimsigoth image prompt with a clear focal point beneath the layered decor.
2. A brighter whimsical version and a darker gothic version using the same subject and layout.
3. A celestial-motif, material, palette, light, shadow, texture, and negative-space map.
4. A negative prompt for generic horror, all-black detail loss, neon cyberpunk, sterile minimalism, copied sets, branded objects, and watermarks.
5. A simplified version that uses only three defining motifs when the full scene becomes cluttered.
6. An originality check confirming that the result uses a broad aesthetic vocabulary rather than a recognizable property or artist imitation.

Example Output

Main Prompt

Original Whimsigoth reading corner with a curved dark-wood chair as the focal point, plum velvet cushion, deep teal wall, small brass-colored sun and moon reliefs, cascading vine silhouettes, amber glass lamp casting warm pools of light, layered patterned textiles, subtle star shapes in the rug, rich jewel-tone palette, theatrical shadows with readable detail, intimate vertical interior photograph, no person, book title, copied set, logo, signature, or watermark.

Lighter Variation

Keep the layout and materials; add soft daylight and reduce the deepest shadows while preserving the jewel-tone palette.

Negative Prompt

Generic haunted house, monochrome black, cyberpunk neon, empty white room, recognizable film set, logo, watermark.
