Isobel DeLassere is a graphic designer, visual artist, omnivorous mind, and author whose work exists at the intersection of storytelling and design. A lifelong resident of the Capital Region of New York, she has spent more than twenty years building the world of Wilsonder—a saga rooted in the streets, history, and soul of Albany, a city she knows with the intimacy of someone who has listened to it carefully for a very long time.

Her debut novel, The Sixtieth Floor, is the first volume of the Wilsonder saga—a work that exists simultaneously as literary fiction, graphic design project, and fully realized diegetic universe. She designed the book's cover, branding, and visual artifacts herself, including the logos, style guides, and brand identity of the fictional Hudson Gateway Energy Solutions.

When she is not writing or designing, she is probably thinking about both.
