Why “Ten Concepts” Instead of “10 Varied Images”

Ask an image generation model to “make it varied” and you get ten similar images. Here's why Somssii nails down the composition and style of each image in advance.

Why “Ten Concepts” Instead of “10 Varied Images”

What happens if you tell an image generation model, “Make 10 varied versions of this banner”? Most of the time you get ten similar images. The model has no standard for interpreting “varied,” so it converges on the single most plausible direction.

Below are the ten images we actually got by putting one photo of a cup into Somssii. It's the same cup, yet none of the ten look alike.

Rule 1 — Split the axes

Somssii splits what can change into three axes: composition (what goes where), color palette (color combinations) and style (texture, lighting, typography treatment). A pack is a combination of these axes. The Mix pack mixes all three, while the palette, composition and style packs change just one axis and keep the rest as in the original. Below is a set where only the composition changed, with color and style left as they were.

Rule 2 — Nail down each image

We first create an assignment table with no overlaps — e.g. #1 “text left · clean white,” #2 “subject on top · dark gold” — then write a different instruction for each image according to that table. Because the choice isn't left to the model, the ten images don't resemble each other.

The labels on the ten images below are that very assignment table — the same concert poster, made with a different composition and style nailed down for each image.

Rule 3 — Write down what to keep first

More important than what changes is what doesn't. AI reads the original and extracts the subject, product, brand marks and visible text verbatim, then adds “keep this text as is, draw Korean as complete syllables” to every instruction. That's why prices, treatment names and hashtags don't change.

Fixed text such as menu names and prices also appears unchanged in all ten images.

Rule 4 — All at once, then again

All ten images enter the generation queue at the same time. That's 4–5 times faster than generating them one by one, and failed images are retried automatically. If there's still an image you don't like, just remake that one with a different concept for 1 credit.
