# Overview

Styles define the visual characteristics of your generated images. You can choose from a wide range of curated styles categorized by type, such as photorealism, illustration, vector icon, or logo, or create your own using reference images.

## The Styles panel

The Styles panel includes several tabs and filters to help you browse and manage styles.

There are two ways to open the Styles panel:

* Select **Style** in the prompt panel
* From within a canvas, click the **Recraft home menu icon** and select  [**Styles**](https://www.recraft.ai/styles) from the dropdown menu.

Styles offers several options:

* **Feed**: An “infinite style library” that shows AI-generated styles. You can search using descriptive terms like *“comics”*, *“3D”*, or *“line art”*, and Recraft will surface visually similar styles — even if the style names don’t exactly match.
* **My styles**: Styles you’ve personally created and saved. (Note: This is distinct from the “Saved” tab to avoid confusion.)
* **Saved**: Styles created by Recraft or other Recraft users that you’ve saved for reuse.
* **Shared**: Styles that have been shared with you by other users. For example, if a teammate or friend sends you a style link, it will appear here.
* **Display filter**: Use the dropdown to filter styles by image type (e.g., Illustration, Vector art, Photorealism).
* **Search**: In most tabs, you can search by **style name**. In the Feed, search terms like *“comic”* or *“3D”* will return styles with similar visual qualities, even if they have different names.
