"There Will Come Soft Rains" is a book design featuring a white background with black writing using two different fonts, one more uniform and the other with more personality to signal the speech of the electronic house. There are hand-drawn illustrations throughout the book emphasizing the grit and symbols described in the text. Later in the book, the page gradually fills with fire as the story takes a turn for the worst. The fire shines bright read standing out on the page.

There Will Come Soft Rains

Lindsay Farb

Printed and Bound Book Design

“There Will Come Soft Rains”, this designed, illustrated, and bound book, was created based on the dystopian short story set in 2026 written by Ray Bradbury in 1950. This project challenged me as a designer to deliver a rather timely, unnerving narrative in a new way highlighting tonal changes through type and illustration.
