Editorial / magazine

An editorial magazine-cover or spread layout — type-led, premium, and organised like a page rather than an ad.

When to use it

Fashion, beauty, interiors and premium goods, where the reference points are print. It gives a static ad an air of having been art-directed rather than assembled.

The thing to get right

Editorial layouts live on hierarchy. One dominant line, one secondary, and generous space — a magazine cover crowded with equal-weight text stops looking editorial immediately.

The format at a glance

• Output — a still image ad.
• Structure — a single frame, with the copy composited on top.
• Family — Image ads.
• Recipe id — magazine_style, which is what you name when you ask for it by hand or from an agent.

What makes a layout stop looking editorial?

Equal weight. Editorial design lives on hierarchy: one dominant line, one secondary, and space around both. A cover crowded with same-size text stops reading as a magazine in the first glance.

Models that render it

This format is rendered by an image model, with the copy composited on top afterwards. Nano Banana Pro is the default pick. The image models page compares the rest, including Seedream 5.0 Lite, FLUX.2 [klein] and Grok Imagine.

Hermoso plans and renders an editorial / magazine from your brand rather than from a prompt you write, composites every on-screen word after the render so the copy comes out exact, and exposes the same format to an AI agent over MCP. How Hermoso renders a format covers all three.
