I Wanna Be Nick Wooster…..

No. 1
Nick Wooster
Nick Wooster is a total trendsetting badass!  You know…..the kind of guy who can push the button just enough to be that rebel we all secretly want to be but still maintains the class of a true gentleman.  Mr. Wooster is indeed one of those guys. 
No. 2

No. 3

No. 4

No. 5

No. 6
Mr. Wooster’s trendsetting ways has afforded him a career with several fashion power houses such as Neiman Marcus, Barney’s, Ralph Lauren, and Calvin Klein. It is his attention to diversity that sets his style apart from the norm. With tattooed arms, a tailored Thom Browne jacket, and tasteful Bermuda shorts…. it is no surprise that I wanna be Nick Wooster!

Art on Wheels...

No. 1
Recently, I’ve begun a new adventure looking to sail thru the wind on a bicycle built for one!  And as I searched for inner peace and a bicycle befitting a gentleman’s standards, I was fortunate to come across this art on wheels. 
No. 2

No. 3
Waldmeister Bikes creates a groundbreaking MANcycle built as environmentally friendly as possible. Using domestic wood from the Teutoburg Forest in Germany, its design is artistically manufactured using wood, leather, and titanium. It is a piece of machinery that any MAN would truly admire!

Behind!!!

No. 1
To all the LOYAL friends of Reynolds Still, I apologize for falling behind on my posts.  Since I’ve returned to school full time as well as started my NEW career, it seems like I’ve lost touch with what truly drives who I am…….Mr. Creativity!  Being that I’ve got all my homework finished, I looked in  every nook and cranny to find something HIP and MANtastic that I could share with my readers.  Although I didn’t find the latest trend or get the one up on the who, the what, the when, the where, and the how… I decided to look for inspiration, something that would bring me back to the roots of REYNOLDS STILL......visual stimulation.  Enjoy!!!
No. 2
All Saints mens' store window display.  Looking at these treddle inspired sewing MANchines, makes you wonder how many pairs of Levi's one of these can stitch in ONE day?! 

No. 3
All Saints mens' clothing store show room.  I love a store that inspires the desire to shop!

No. 4
Cement!  What's more masculine than a material that is ROCK hard!

No. 5
Vintage Aston Martin....didn't the coolest man in the world, Steve McQueen, own one of these bad boys?

No. 6
Masculine inspired dining room.....lucky for the guy who owns this space that teacher didn't make him write a thousand times, "I've been a bad, bad boy!"

No. 7
Men's clothing store, London.  Look at all the detail!  I don't think I would even bother looking at the clothes as I'm so inspired by the visual creativity.  Detail, detail, detail!

No. 8
Jazz.....because it just makes me feel COOL like that!

No. 9
STOP!!!  Now before you judge....look at the visual detail.  We all know no one would be wearing that to their 8 to 5 job but look at the detail.  Incredible creativity!!!

No. 10
I'm definitely getting a radiator grill for some urban wall art!  A Reynolds Still favorite.

No. 11
Wingtips.....need I say more?!

So what visually stimulates you?

The Bachelor!

No. 1
A very masculine perspective, this Tribeca Penthouse makeover will blow your mind.  I like this Jacobsen Egg chair covered in cowhide with the steel clad fire door framing it from behind.  Notice the original industrial pulley system used to open and close the metal door.  Detail, detail, detail!!!

No. 2
Very handsome rosewood industrial desk perfect for writing my blog posts!

No. 3
Incredible urban detail shown in this hallway stainless-steel shelving unit.   

No. 4
I like me some clothes so this dressing room had me at HELLO!

No. 5
Glass enclosed bathroom with limestone tub screams I'm Bringin' Sexy Back!

No. 6
I've become a BIG fan of the open approach to kitchen and dining.  It provides great opportunity to entertain while preparing those bleu cheese, bacon angus burger sliders for your guests.  Don't forget to include the chipotle ranch dressing for dipping! 

This masculine bachelor pad makeover is the creative design of David Mann and Brett McMullen of MR Architecture + Decor.  Holla!!!

Open and Free.....

No. 1
I am totally digging the architecture of this space.  It's open and free.  How hard do you think it would be to furnish a place with all this space?

Buzzzzed OFF!

No. 1
Now that spring has almost sprung it’s time to get that haircut ready for the heat of summer.  The trendy summer look for 2011 is the butched-up crew cut.  Talk about versatility, this bad boy can be worn with respect during workday corporate meetings or can be turned into a rebellious afterthought for Friday nights on the town.

Real Men Don’t Eat Marshmallows or Do They?!

No. 1
White Russian Marshmallow
It takes a true creative soul to invent a product like cocktail marshmallows! The White Russian marshmallow is one of the signature cocktail creations whipped up by food artisan Sugar Poofs. The company name itself doesn’t do much for the fragile male ego but the designer marshmallows they create sure makes the humiliation go down a little bit easier. This fluffy concoction is made with Kahlúa, Irish Cream, and cane sugar and tastes true to what you would order from the guy on the other side of the bar. So fellas, next time you’re out camping with the boys and feel secure in your MANhood, be sure to bring along your Sugar Poofs for roasting! Must be 21 years of age to purchase. Seriously!!!

Best regards,
Reynolds

I Wanna Be Frank!!!

No. 1
Frank Lloyd Wright
When someone says the name, Frank Lloyd Wright, almost everyone would say “Oh I’ve heard of him!”  I’d even bet that if you placed his work in a lineup of other notable architects, most everyone could point out his and get it Wright! 
No. 2
Frank Lloyd Wright was a rock star in the world of American architecture.  Wright designed more than 1,000 projects and completed 500 of those works.  One masterpiece of many is “La Miniatura” house.  Built in 1923, it is definitely one of a kind.

Man-terior!

No. 1
This little ranch re-do has a lot of down home detail going on.  I especially like the fireplace filled with books, finish reading then thrown it on the fire.  Genious!

Yeeee-haw ya'll!

Good Times!

No. 1
It's television trivia time on Reynolds Still.  Shoud you not be able to answer the question, you are allowed only ONE phone-a-friend.  I'm sure most of us have seen or at least heard of the 70's sitcom, Good Times.  Maybe you remember JJ's "Dynomite!!!"  What about the Sugar Shack painting shown at the end of the show? 

No. 2
Do you remember now?  Ernie Barnes is the incredible genious behind this infamous painting as well as many others.  His style is very recognizable with his use of vivd coloring, elongated forms, and unique subject matter.  I've picked out a few of my favorite and honestlly, would love to have one of his paintings hanging in my home.

No. 9
Ernie Barnes is a man of incredible talent and artistry.  It's amazing how he represents the human form on canvas.  For those of you who are as fascinated by his talent as I am, you can purchase a coffee table book of his art HERE.


Good times Mr. Barnes, GOOD TIMES!

Reynolds
