Usonia Wine Labels

Packaging

2023

Usonia, run by Julia & Alex Alvarez-Perez, makes minimal intervention wines from fruit from their own Cayuga Lake vineyard and from likeminded growers. The name comes from Frank Lloyd Wright, who coined the term to refer to his vision of a democratic American landscape unbound by Old World conventions. Since first reimagining the brand’s labels in 2022, we have overseen all Usonia releases.

Designed typographically eclectic labels for Usonia Wines, with Creative Direction by Elana Schlenker and Illustrations by Jo Minor.
