Meet the Absolutely Outdoors Team
Gary Hoffman
Owner/Founder
Cheers! Gary’s amazing eye for design has allowed him to create some of the most impressive landscapes, pools and hardscapes in the state of Texas. In a career of over 30 years, Hoffman has earned some of the highest merits from TNLA (Texas Nursery and Landscape Association) as well as industry articles praising his talents. The passion he has towards working on unique projects that identify with his client’s personalities is an exciting process to witness. No detail is missed on his projects as he works towards perfection on all Absolutely Outdoors’ projects, which distinguishes him from his competitors. His work ethic and ability to cohesively collaborate the art they achieve is something all admire. Gary’s ability to integrate colors and textures is very much like an interior decorator, but his strongest asset is his ability to recognize existing architecture and transfer it to the exterior canvas. In closing, he simply will graciously thank his clients for providing the canvas to express his art. He will finish with a jolly smile and say, “I told you from the start; It’s not an illusion, it’s perfect, it’s Absolutely Outdoors!”
