World Building Codex V1
The first released codex, forever free. 10 visual archetypes and the foundations of consistent AI world design.
The World Building Codex Library
3 free volumes of frameworks for AI world building. Midjourney sref codes, archetypes, fundamentals — used by 1,200+ creators.
In the age of AI, generating an image is easy. Building a universe is hard. The Codex is an ongoing series of monographs dedicated to the art of coherence — the archetypes, structures, and frameworks used to turn single images into universes that can actually expand.
The volumes
World Building Codex V2
A more workflow-heavy and personal volume. The logic of consistency behind a coherent expanded universe.
World Building Codex 3.0
The 13 fundamentals of building consistent fictional worlds — the principles underneath the tools and trends.
The whole method is also written out, free, in the World Building library: the thirteen fundamentals taught in full, organized into Foundation, Craft and Direction, plus what changes when the models start generating places instead of pictures.
