Design Concept
A large, aged pocket clock dominates the center of the cover, its hands frozen at one minute to midnight, signifying the impending doomsday. The clock is set against a backdrop of swirling dark clouds with faint traces of lightning, hinting at an approaching storm. Shadows and highlights on the clock create a dramatic three-dimensional effect.
The title "When the Clock Runs Out" is in a distressed serif font, giving an antique and urgent feel. The words are layered over the clock, with slight embossing to enhance visibility against the busy background.
The pocket clock is the focal centerpiece, with the title arching over its top. The swirling clouds envelop the clock, with areas of light that lead the eye around the cover. The subtitle, if present, can be tucked at the bottom in a smaller size for subtle emphasis.
The cover design uses a dark and moody palette to evoke a sense of fear and anticipation aligned with the theme of doomsday. The pocket clock's symbolism of time running out is immediately clear and central to the design, reinforcing the book's theme. By using a distressed serif font, the typography complements the clock's aged appearance, suggesting timelessness and urgency. The matte soft-touch laminate provides a subtle visual texture that enhances the depth of the composition and adds an alluring tactile quality, making the book feel significant and weighty in the reader's hands.
