CONTEST

🎯 Close Enough 🎯: When Chaos Meets Creative Control

One prompt. Dozens of wild interpretations.

Last week, we challenged the Sogni Creative Army to take one reference image and run with it—remixing, reshaping, and reimagining it through their own artistic lens.


And the results?
Unreal. Unfiltered. Unmistakably Sogni.

From neon-drenched cyberpunk reflections to Renaissance-inspired reinterpretations, the creativity hit hard and fast. No two entries looked the same—and that was the point.
