We specialize in custom fabrication on any of our copper tables,
garden structures, copper art and accessories! Why settle for the ordinary?
Thank
you for making our very unusual Four Seasons Waterfall Gazebo
display, shown at the recent 45th Annual Colorado Garden &
Home Show, such a success! Look for detailed images of this beautiful
structure to be posted soon on these pages, one image from the
show is already posted below. Also, our new line of artist created
path and landscape lighting was well received at this recent show.
Look for this new line to be posted on our landscape lighting
pages. These unique lights are beauties!
Custom projects are always welcome!
Please don't waste the precious time that you get to spend outdoors
by purchasing a high-maintenance wood or steel trellis. Plant
a copper trellis, arbor or gazebo in your landscape and sit back
and let it age beautifully!
Add beauty and interest to your garden even before the plants
mature. Our superbly crafted garden structures are all functional
works of art. Sturdily constructed of all copper or copper and
redwood, these pieces will survive the elements beautifully and
last a lifetime. Left untreated, the copper weathers to a green
patina and the redwood will turn a silvery gray. Or, if you want
color right away, we can apply a solution for an instant verdigris
patina. For nighttime interest, try up-lighting any of these trellises
with our copper/brass landscape lighting to elegantly highlight
your landscape's architecture. Or pair them with some of our torches
(see Torches & Candleholders page).

BUYER BEWARE! PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR THE "FITTING" SCAM! (see illustrations towards the bottom of this page for more information)

We just couldn't
wait to bring you a sneak preview of our all new Four Season Waterfall
Gazebo from our well received display at the recent 2004 45th Annual
Colorado Garden & Home Show! A local floral club, The Flower Ladies,
created the beautiful tropical arrangement in one of our 40 inch wide
copper bowls that rests on on of our custom 30" tall copper cylinders.
Standing 15.5 feet tall with a custom 4 foot octagon all copper
finial, the top is supported by four 2 feet wide panels. These support
panels have adjustable drip bars which emit a steady stream of water
into copper catch basins at ground level.
Sitting under or near this fabulous copper gazebo, one gets quite
a symphony of the sound of the falling "rain" all without
getting wet! Over the top of each drip bar is an artistic representation
of each Season of the year created with birds and branches.
Please look for more detailed images coming soon on our "Arbors
& Gazebos" page with pricing and instructions on how to order.
The footprint of this particular gazebo was 9' x 9' and we are more
than willing to talk to you about a custom size for your landscape or
maybe for your interior space!

 
We now have an all new copper finials page. Finials for your garden,
your rooftop or your fence posts as seen directly above! Click here
or on Copper Finials in the left side navigation bar.
FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY, LET US DESIGN AND FABRICATE SOMETHING
SPECIAL FOR YOUR HOME OR YOUR GARDEN!
Shown below is a conceptual drawing from one of our customers who collaborated
with our in-house designer for custom copper wall art to be hung in
front of a tile wall which has water sheeting down its face.
Whether it is wall art that you are after, a unique piece of furniture,
a one of a kind garden structure or some yard art; let GI Designs help
design and fabricate your special piece right here in our shop in Denver,
CO. You'll be glad you did!
 
ALL GARDEN STRUCTURES ON THESE PAGES ARE BUILT WITH
PRIDE IN THE USA!
Passion Flower (below) makes a lovely statement growing
on any of our garden structures!
Below is an example of our custom fabrication on a
flat top gazebo. The one shown below is the third and most elaborate
of three custom wedding structures that were purchased by the City and
County of San Diego for use outside of their Clerk Recorders' Offices
for staging outdoor weddings. With its double wedding ring theme, our
custom copper wedding gazebo makes a lovely setting for a couple to
exchange their wedding vows. What can we design and build for you? Please
call us toll free or e-mail us the details, we'd be happy to help make
your visions a reality!

BUYER BEWARE! PLEASE DON'T FALL FOR THE "FITTING" SCAM!
Please note that we never use plumbing fittings to join our
pieces unless you specifically request them. We believe they
look good in a plumbing system, but not on display in or around
your home for use as decorative trellises, arbors and other
garden structures! Your garden structure from GI Designs Does
Not have to be assembled by you using basic plumbing fittings;
it is already professionally fit together. Our pieces are truly
works of art, not a mass of 90 & 45 degree elbows, tees
and other plumbing fittings used to make fabrication easy! We
guarantee all of our trellises, arbors and garden structures
for life!
Below, on the left, is an example of our construction methods
building a Ryan Trellis (with optional green patina). On the
right is a Ryan Trellis made with plumbing fittings. We believe
our system of custom angle cuts or bends for the corners, and
drilling and fitting of the cross members is closer to the clean
lines of fine furniture than the "below the kitchen sink"
look of the technique at right used by many in this field.
One of our founders was a Journeyman Pipefitter at Newport
News Shipyard and the other is a graphic designer and artist
-- We know what you want and what looks good! While both methods
of joinery are sturdy and long lasting, we believe that G.I.
Designs' construction methods have the definite edge in creating
a work of art that you would be proud to display outside your
home or business. We do the work for you, we don't send you
something you will spend hours assembling, nor will you be saying
to yourself that you could have built our products yourself!
We see nothing "elegant" about plumbing fittings.
You be the judge. The Difference is in the Details!
