From the Practice Log – Leatherius Woodman
This is the practice log – an ongoing series of design studies from our bench. we test dies, leathers and layouts on real-world marks that catch our eye: bold logos, long wordmarks, names that suggest a picture. Some studies press a mark exactly as found; some propose a new one where only plain type existed.
Every study here is made out of love – we are on a mission to create and share artifacts of beauty, craft and love, and we hope the feeling is mutual. Every render is a render – it's how we prototype before cutting a die. If a study concerns your business and you'd like anything changed, or made real, one note through our contact page does it.
