🏜️ SadiMud V2: Traditional Desert Architecture

SadiMud V2 is an enhanced model dedicated to generating traditional Arab (mud-brick) architectural styles. This version serves as a comprehensive upgrade over our initial V1 (built for SDXL), with a focus on improving result consistency, fine-tuning intricate architectural details, and elevating overall output quality.

🏛️ My Vision & Purpose

The SadiMud project was born from a deep passion for preserving Arab architectural heritage, particularly the Saudi mud-brick construction style, which is a vital part of our history. I faced significant challenges in gathering reference material, as many of these sites are remote, abandoned, or lack digital documentation. Furthermore, the costs associated with training resources pose a notable challenge for an independent creator striving to deliver high-quality work.

✨ What’s New in V2?

• Descriptive Accuracy: I utilized Captions to refine the image captions. This grants you greater flexibility in crafting your prompts without being constrained by a single, rigid style.

• Comprehensive Coverage: The dataset includes a diverse range of an open source& free to Use - interior and exterior shots—from well-preserved structures to those weathered by natural elements—providing high visual authenticity.

• Superior Quality: Original images of varying quality were processed and restored using advanced enhancement models, with all assets standardized to 1080x1080 as a base to Expand and ensure results that meet your expectations.

• Visual Calibration: Colors and lighting adjustment have been carefully adjusted to authentically reflect the raw texture of clay and the desert environment.

⚙️ Training Specifications

To ensure clarity and architectural detail, this model was trained with the following settings:

• Resolution: 1024x1024.

• Network Rank (Dim): 32.

• Network Alpha: 16.

• Optimizer: AdamW8bit.

• Precision: bf16.

🎯 Usage

To invoke the style in your prompts, simply trigger it with the keyword: SadiMud.

💡 Suggested Prompts

Use these prompts to get the best results from the SadiMud V2 model:

• Prompt 1: SadiMud, an exterior view of a traditional mud-brick house at dusk, crumbling clay walls showing layers of exposed mud bricks and deep cracks, bright overhead daylight, and three small rectangular windows with natural wooden shutters, layers of peeling plaster, linear overhead lighting, sandy ground

• Prompt 2: SadiMud, deep cracks in the rough clay walls, a wooden door, arid desert landscape under a dramatic cloudy sky at dusk, soft natural lighting, nostalgic and rustic atmosphere, and rubble on the cracked desert ground, dramatic rugged red desert cliffs in the background

• Prompt 3: SadiMud, a full exterior shot of a modest, a wide-angle shot of a traditional ancient mud brick house in a desert landscape, bright sunny daylight, showcasing the rough, daylight setting, minimalist rustic desert heritage design, a wide-angle shot of a historic mud-brick fortress complex nestled in a mountainous landscape

⚙️ Recommended LoRA Weight

For the best architectural results, it is recommended to adjust the LoRA weight within the range of 0.95 to 1.19.

• Guidelines: Increasing the weight (towards 1.19) forces the model to strictly adhere to the intricate, weathered, and traditional architectural features of ancient mud-brick construction.

• Note: There is no single "perfect" weight, as the ideal setting depends heavily on your specific prompt. If your prompt is rich in historical detail, lower weights may suffice; however, you may find that higher weights are necessary for more complex or heavily detailed scenes. We encourage you to experiment within this range to find the balance that best serves your creative vision.

💡 A Personal Note: I am at the beginning of my journey in training LoRA models, and this project is my first major step in exploring this field. If this model adds value to your projects or inspires an appreciation means a great deal to me. It is not just about the contribution; it is a gesture of appreciation for the time and effort invested in documenting this legacy and developing these tools. Thank you to everyone who encourages me to keep going.

So
"If you find this model helpful and would like to support my journey in documenting Saudi heritage, any tips or Buzz contributions are greatly appreciated and help me continue creating. Thank you!"
