All Around Trips × Leatherius Woodman – a leather stamping study
From the Practice Log – an ongoing series of stamping studies on real-world marks.
A July study.
All Around Trips is an upscale travel advisory out of Wyoming that has been at this a while; the hero says “PLANNING SINCE 2017.” just beneath two lines we kept rereading, “TRAVEL, CONSIDERED” and “Travel designed around you.” That second line is the whole practice in five words. They build journeys on education and trust, from Caribbean sailings to long trekking days, and their adventure page holds a sentence we underlined: the trip you remember is “the one you earned.” We know that feeling from the bench.
The header, as we found it, is the name alone in bold, widely tracked capitals, black on a warm off-white field. It is clean and confident, and it leaves a drawing on the table, because the name describes a figure. Something travels all around a fixed point. So we drew the point, a single centered dot – you, or home – and sent a dashed flight path the whole way around it, one small plane still en route. We tried the plane due north first and the circle stiffened into a clock face; it departs from an off-hour now, the way real flights do. Beneath the orbit the name sits in capitals tracked wide, much as they set it.

The mark this study proposes
Pressed
For the leathers we stayed inside their own palette: forest green for the deep olive of the hero overlays, gray-sand for the warm off-white their capitals stand on. The black one takes the gold.
We made this out of love. Leatherius Woodman is on a mission to create and share artifacts of beauty, craft and love – this study is one of them, and we hope the feeling is mutual. Every image is a render – how we prototype before cutting a die.
