LIVING PERFECTION STARTS BY FORMING THE PERFECT

Client-Designer Partnership

OUR DESIGNS cannot be defined by a single style; each and every design is a custom product that is created specifically to reflect our homeowners. Your landscape, like your home, should be an extension of your vision, taste, and lifestyle. A Gasper design is the result of careful listening and good communication, combined with creativity, vision, quality workmanship, and years of design expertise.

At Gasper, we know that each and every one of our ‘projects’ is a home; that our ‘clients’ are people with families. Every day, we work with real people, real homes and our customer base grows from real recommendations from happy homeowners to their friends and neighbors.

Each year we fill our publications with stunning photography. These are photos of some of our favorite projects that we have built over the years. The featured projects are selected from the many different construction projects that we install each year. We want to bring you a sense of the many different types and levels of projects that we take on. Not only that, we want to truly inspire you with all the possibilities our designers can bring to your outside spaces.

The Landscape Design Lookbook is no exception, but hopefully we have only whetted your appetite. If this book has left you wanting to find out more about Gasper, I would highly recommend you click on one of the many blue button icons that will take you directly to more information on our website. It is packed with inspirational ideas and photos to be used in creating the landscape of your dreams as well as the quickest way to contact us to set up an appointment for one of our landscape sales designers to visit your home. It also contains a lot of informative and helpful resources for homeowners, expert advice on various landscape and garden related topics, and many links to the products and manufacturers that we use and carry in the Garden Center, or through our DIY Hardscape supply division, Bucks County Hardscape Supply.

Click the LEARN MORE icons to see videos, read articles, and learn more insights into our landscape projects!

Who knows? Maybe this time next year it will be YOUR HOME being featured in our annual LookBook!

Make a good first impression

Perfect strangers took the time to stop me and compliment the new walkway.

Isn’t time to upgrade that old concrete builder’s walkway? How about a new wider walkway to guide your guests directly to your front door? Are your windows and doors obscured by overgrown plantings? Let Gasper designers open up your front landscape with new appropriate plantings that were carefully selected for seasonal interest, low-maintenance and appropriate size. Haven’t you always wanted a portico to cover your entrance door? Gasper’s skilled carpenters can build you a portico that will compliment your home’s architecture. No matter what your needs are out front, a new front entrance by Gasper will give you plenty of curb appeal to leave a lasting impression for years to come.

Helping you love your outdoor space is what we do!

The best part about having the new patio is that my husband will sit outside with me as opposed to inside watching TV. It brings us all together-outside.

Whether you desire a tranquil retreat for quiet evenings or a large gathering space for entertaining, Gasper’s award winning design team can create a custom design just right for your outdoor space. Our designs take into consideration the scale of your house and, just as importantly the scale of your budget. Experienced in working with a wide variety of materials, our crews employ both expertise and craftsmanship in building patios and walls that will withstand the test of time. Let Gasper bring your dreams to life and transform your yard into your favorite getaway spot.

We’ve got you covered

The carpenters were fantastic. I never imagined the roof would look this good.

Being able to find a shady refuge right in your own back yard is probably the number one reason Gasper’s clients request a custom structure such as a covered roof, pergola or pavilion. Designed properly, these structures can become an outdoor living destination, creating a comfortable place to gather with family and friends.

At Gasper, we feel your new structure should be a focal point in your yard. Our custom structures are thoughtfully designed to complement the architecture of your home and work successfully with existing elements on your property.

Our customers often remark that these covered outdoor spaces act as a second living or dining room for their families. Popular requests include entertainment features such as large screen televisions, audio systems, built-in bars and fireplaces, that can help extend your time spent outdoors.

Functional design, the finest materials and meticulous craftsmanship are true hallmarks of a Gasper-built structure. With a new structure built by our custom carpentry division, you will enjoy an expanded living area that is sure to become your favorite gathering space for years to come.

An outdoor room with a view

I had no idea how versatile a pergola can be — it gives my outdoor space a defined area that is open, yet nicely shaded. We find everyone is drawn to the pergola whenever the family is outside.

Looking for the perfect focal point or destination in your garden? The open structure of a pergola gives you the feeling of an outdoor room. While the open roof structure of a pergola is open to the elements such as rain, sitting in the light shade it provides can be quite comfortable. In fact, it is the perfect place to spend time outdoors with friends and family. Pergolas can be either formal or natural in style depending on the type and finish of the construction materials used. Intimate seating arrangements or dining tables laid out under a custom-built Gasper pergola will be sure to become the focal point of any sized garden.

Decked out in personal style

The covered deck is truthfully the most used room in the house, spring through fall.

Are you ready to replace that old, deteriorating wood deck yet? A new composite deck by Gasper might be the answer. Composite decking is available in many colors to complement the existing color palette of your home, does not require staining or sealing, and is extremely durable. Since all our decks are built in-house by our team of experienced carpenters, there’s no need to hire or coordinate multiple companies to get your whole project complete — carpentry, hardscape or landscape — Gasper can do it all.

It’s time to turn up the heat

The fireplace is a good way to enjoy the outdoors…It is perfect on a cool still night.

— ANDREW S.

Add a dramatic focal point to any patio or landscape with the warm, cozy glow of a fire. An exterior fireplace extends the use of an outdoor living space from summer into all four seasons. Let an outdoor fireplace define your patio as a focal point and destination — a place to gather, create leisure activities, entertain, and make memories. Whether you enjoy evenings with the family or intimate party settings, a custom-built Gasper fireplace extends the hour and season of any outdoor space.

A warm place to gather

We come out here a lot more frequently than I thought we would…to just sit outside with a glass of wine, to make s’mores, to hang out, to have friends over.

Sitting around a fire pit isn’t just about keeping warm. Whether you’re hosting an outdoor party after the sun has gone down, or you want to snuggle up with your family and chat into the early hours, a fire pit is the ultimate focal point and creates an irresistibly ambient glow for a cozy evening outdoors.

There are very few things more inviting than a warm fire on a cold winter’s evening. Add family, friends, and some comfortable seating and you can have the perfect place to gather and enjoy your company.

The longest days may well be behind us, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the cooler nights around the warmth and comfort of a Gasper-built fire pit while you gaze at the stars.

Choose to eat out more often

The cook station is great because I can share time with guests while preparing the food.

Dreaming of an outdoor kitchen oasis? Gasper can make it possible. Outfitted with all the amenities of your indoor kitchen, outdoor entertaining has never been easier with a custom cook station built by Gasper. An outdoor kitchen can offer integrated appliances, storage and counter space. Gasper can even match the kitchen’s material and style to its surroundings. Don’t worry if cooking is not your thing — a new counter top with plenty of room to serve food & beverages combined with lots of bar height seating will be the gathering spot for guests all season long.

Select an enlightened design

We entertain more in the evening because of the post lighting on the deck and the lights Gasper had suggested in the garden.

A Gasper design always suggests the smart placement of low-voltage landscape lighting. Not only is landscape lighting aesthetically beautiful, but it also increases the usability of any space long into the evening hours. Gasper prefers to use Kichler and Cast Lighting’s fixtures because the solid bronze construction is both beautiful and extremely durable. Most fixtures feature LED bulbs which are extremely energy efficient and long-lived.
