What is Krea 2?
Krea 2 Open-Source is an open-weight image generation model from Krea.
As with FLUX.1 Krea, which Krea released earlier, the architecture itself is not especially unusual. Instead, the model feels built with care around the dataset, aiming for beautiful images that do not look overly AI-like.
Two models are available, but for normal image generation you will use Turbo.
- Krea 2 Raw
- An undistilled base model. Mainly intended for LoRA training and fine-tuning.
- Krea 2 Turbo
- A distilled model that can generate in 8 steps.
The Web / API version of Krea also has Krea 2 Medium and Krea 2 Large, but the open-weight release only includes Raw and Turbo.

"A highly stylized anime illustration, viewed from a high-angle three-quarter perspective, showing an old compact car dramatically stranded in shallow coastal water among large rocks, as if it ran aground and got stuck there. The car is tilted unevenly and wedged against multiple rocks, creating a more dynamic and three-dimensional stranded composition. The surrounding environment is a natural rocky shoreline with bright blue seawater, scattered stones under the water, and no alley, no wall, no air-conditioning units, no urban background, no tree, no graffiti, and no city clutter.\n\nA desperate young woman sits on the roof of the car near a large hand-painted \"SOS\" sign. She has messy blonde hair and a visibly exhausted, worn-down expression. She is urgently drinking from a nearly empty plastic water bottle, as if she is rationing the last of it. Her posture should feel tense, drained, and survival-oriented, not relaxed or casual. She wears a pale light blue jumpsuit that is heavily worn, torn, dirty, and damaged, with frayed fabric and signs of hardship. Her body language and face should suggest thirst, fatigue, and isolation.\n\nThe car is old, weathered, faded, rusted, and damaged, with cracked windows and a harsh sun-bleached surface. Strong cloud shadows pass dramatically over the woman, the car, the rocks, and the water, creating bold shifting patches of light and shadow. Flat cel-shaded anime style, graphic poster-like composition, bold simplified shapes, clean linework, slightly exaggerated perspective, painterly digital texture, quiet but intense survival mood, vivid cyan-blue water, pale rocks, faded vehicle colors, strong atmospheric lighting, no photorealism, no 3D render."

Krea 2 Turbo is a model for 8-step generation.
steps: 8cfg: 1.0- Recommended resolution : 1K to 2K
Official Style LoRAs
One of Krea 2's major selling points is style control through features such as Style references and Moodboards, but at the moment those are not released as OSS.
Instead, Krea has released several official style LoRAs, so let's try those.

Each LoRA has its own recommended trigger word and strength, so check the model card for the one you use.

"A rugged Land Cruiser-like off-road vehicle is stranded in shallow coastal water among large rocks at night, as if it ran aground and became stuck there. The vehicle is slightly tilted and wedged against rocks, creating a dynamic stranded composition. The surrounding environment is a natural rocky shoreline with dark seawater and scattered stones visible beneath the surface. Beside the vehicle, a small campfire burns near the shore, and its light reflects beautifully across the water, creating shimmering highlights on the waves and wet rocks. Near the fire, simple clothes are hanging to dry on a rough makeshift drying rack built from improvised wooden branches and sticks.\n\nOn top of the vehicle, a man in worn backpacker-style clothing lies resting on the roof while using binoculars to look up at the night sky. He feels like a lone traveler surviving in isolation, calm and contemplative. His outfit is practical and weathered, suitable for travel and outdoor survival. The vehicle is old, dusty, damaged, and worn, with cracked windows and a harsh exposed surface. The overall mood is quiet, isolated, and atmospheric, with strong contrast between deep night shadows and soft firelight reflections.\n\nStrictly grayscale, black and white only, monochrome image, no color accents, no vivid hues, ink-like tonal rendering, monochrome ink wash style"

- Here, Krea-2-LoRA-darkbrush is used.
- The trigger word is
monochrome ink wash style.
I am looking forward to seeing many LoRAs from the community.
