Buffmonster started his empire on the streets in paper.
As my first blog on the Staple site, it’s appropriate that I mention street art. Since it was Faile’s posters in the windows of the Staple office that attracted me to get an internship at Staple.
Buffmonster who started his empire as a street artist in Los Angeles has branched out into other mediums in recent years.
This is his new figure The Destroyer (pre-order 8/16 @theloyalsubjects.com) that has recently been announced. The figure is an incredible 14″ tall and has some crazy antlers. But the Buff guy flying out of its head is truly what has made me reserve a spot in my collection.
Also announced were another set of plush toys (available in various outlets) ready to be placed on your coffee table or placed on your car dash. It’s always a treat to see the transfer of artists art from 2D into 3D especially when it’s done well.

Often times, I don’t have the opportunity to tell you guys about how a project comes to fruition. I often say, “it’s the little things that make up the big things”; and for better or for worse, I rarely talk about the little things on this blog—you just get to see the big things—the final output and product. I wish I did have more mental capacity/free time to capture these things down and document them…but often, it’s on to the next season/special project/collaboration/product launch/etc, etc, for me and my team.
For Reed Space Honolulu, we were able to work with a great team based out in Honolulu called Creative Solutions. On their site, they did what I wish I could always do…document each and every step of the creative process in detail…in this case for the Reed Space pop-up shop. It’s an awesome read for anyone who has ever asked how a project happens and what it took to execute. Enjoy it. It’s a rarity. And a big thank you to Team CS!
多くの場合、１つのプロジェクトがどのように実現されるかは皆に話すことはありません。僕がよく言うのは「大きな事は小さな事の積み重ね」ですが、良くも悪くも、このブログではその小さな事にふれる事はなかなかありません。ここでは大きな事、最終的な結果や商品しか見られません。そういう細かいことも捉えて記す気力と時間が自分にあれば、と思います。ただ、そんな時、僕と僕のチームはもうすでに来シーズンのスペシャルプロジェクト/コラボレーション/プロダクトリリース/などなどに取り掛かっています。
Reed Space Honoluluでは、ホノルルに拠点を置くCreative Solutionsというチームと一緒に働くことができました。彼らのサイトでは、僕がやりたかったこと、一つ一つのクリエーティブプロセスを詳細に記録しています。Reed Spaceポップアップストアに関しても。どのようにプロジェクトが形になり、どのように実行すればいいのか、興味がある人には必見です。こちらで読んでみてください。まれに見る裏側です。チームCSに大感謝！
