Releasing Open Weights for FLUX.1 Krea
Today, we're releasing an open version of Krea 1, our first image model trained in collaboration with Black Forest Labs to offer superior aesthetic control and image quality. This checkpoint is a guidance distilled model fully compatible with FLUX.1-dev allowing seamless integration with the existing ecosystem. FLUX.1-Krea [dev] has been distilled to match the quality of Krea 1 with a focus on preserving aesthetics and photorealism. Unlike most image models, FLUX.1 Krea has been created with opinionated aesthetics in mind. We focused on creating a model that truly fits our specific aesthetic preferences. In this technical report, we'll share the process and learnings from developing this model, including insights on pre-training and post-training, as well as future research directions. “White owl, close up portrait, mysterious ghost like owl, low contrast, cinematic dark moody photo, slight blue color grading” “When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure” Image ge
