# Krea 2 Ostris Edit

Reference-image conditioned image generation with [Krea 2 Turbo](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo), powered by the [Krea2OstrisEdit](https://huggingface.co/ostris/Krea2OstrisEdit) community pipeline.

## How it works

Upload a reference image and type a prompt describing what you want to generate. The [Style Reference LoRA](https://huggingface.co/ostris/krea2_turbo_style_reference) conditions the Krea 2 Turbo model in two ways:

1. **Text encoder** — the reference image is embedded into the prompt via Qwen3-VL vision placeholders, so the text conditioning "sees" the reference
2. **Latent space** — clean VAE latents of the reference are appended to the transformer sequence at flow time t=0 (Kontext-style "index" placement)

Toggle the "Use reference image" checkbox to switch between reference-conditioned generation and plain text-to-image mode.

## Components

- **Base model:** [krea/Krea-2-Turbo](https://huggingface.co/krea/Krea-2-Turbo) (8-step distilled Krea 2)
- **Custom pipeline:** [ostris/Krea2OstrisEdit](https://huggingface.co/ostris/Krea2OstrisEdit) (reference-image conditioning + AI-Toolkit LoRA loading)
- **LoRA:** [ostris/krea2_turbo_style_reference](https://huggingface.co/ostris/krea2_turbo_style_reference) (style reference conditioning)

## Inference recipe

- **Steps:** 8 (Turbo distilled)
- **Guidance:** 0.0 (disabled, per Krea 2 Turbo convention)
- **LoRA scale:** 1.0 (adjustable)
- **Resolution:** 1024x1024 (adjustable, must be multiples of 16)
