7 Midjourney prompts experimenting with modern furniture design concepts
How particular style parameters return stunning ideas
Midjourney is an effective tool for experimenting with design ideas or discovering concepts for a design exploration.
Especially for furniture design explorations, Midjourney delivers interesting results when prompted with a few key design styles.
In this exploration to render modern furniture variations, I focused on 5 key style references:
Mondrian style (which is a modular design reference)
Bézier curves (for beautiful rounded shapes)
Shape parameters, such as pea pod, lime wedge, or square
Material parameter, such as transparent material, velvet, or foam
— style raw (keeping it conceptual)
Using these three basic style references in various ways, I was able to pull together a library of very inspiring furniture visuals.
When Midjourney delivered an interesting visual, I experimented with strong and subtle variations to see what other forms would be rendered.
