Gasper Landscape Design Look Book 2020  |  Gasper Landscape Design & Construction
Winner of the 2020 Apex Award for Design and Layout. Gasper's Landscape Design Look Book is divided into 3 sections: Landscape Portfolio; Home Owner’s Guide; Garden Center. Each of these sections are distinct by accent color and design. Contents page clearly delineates each section of the book, and the dominate image shows a recent landscape project with retail content, as well as portrays a sense of “welcome” as done with the steps in the foreground. Bold divider spreads include section contents list, a summary about the section, and introduce the section's accent color. The theme, 2020 Vision, is carried throughout the book without becoming a distraction, and article content supports the theme. Theme is carried out visually with the square paver icon, and the page subject matter is used inside the shape. Each caption's main idea is highlighted to provide key entry points to the spread's content. Client testimonials support content on every spread. Home owner’s guide was deliberately designed to look “academic” like a textbook.
