What size do these print at?

Each flat lay is composed as a clean overhead crop, suited to a menu, a print or a social post.

Can I get a different plate, like an omelette or avocado toast?

Yes — the direction field takes any plate, and the same three-light set renders it.

What's the difference between the three lights?

One is bright and even for the classic flat lay look, one carries a warmer late-afternoon mood, and one is styled flat for a printed board.

Can I use these for my café's menu or blog?

Yes — these are generated images meant for menus, blogs and social posts, with no real plate photographed.

Reading 3Granola bowl

The breakfast table read from above: a full plate, a stack of pancakes, a granola bowl. The flat lay is the register the vertical photo is named for, and these nine ask what the same table looks like from above, at dusk, and on a printed board. Ask for a different plate — an omelette, a fruit platter, avocado toast — and the same three lights carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
