TTR Sotheby's International Realty × Leatherius Woodman – a leather stamping study

From the Practice Log – an ongoing series of stamping studies on real-world logos.

An August study.

For TTR Sotheby's International Realty.

For the warm-up, we put the Sotheby's International Realty wordmark on the luggage tags. The black tag carries it in gold.

Next, we drew a door key and cut its teeth as a coastline – Talbot County holds more than six hundred miles of shoreline, and every one of those miles is entered with a key.

On the keychains, navy and warm tan, it hangs beside the real ones.

Looks great when stamped onto the leather.

We set the same key at full size in the golden tan catchall tray – the bowl by the door where the keys land.

Then, the compass. We put a small house where north should be, with ST MICHAELS above and CHESAPEAKE BAY below – for everyone who steers by home.

We pressed it into the lower corner of the toiletry bags, navy over chestnut.

And finally, the journals, navy and pale warm greige, with the compass set generously where a monogram would go.

It looks genuinely beautiful.

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.
