The architect of Maison Jaspar, Paul Jaspar had a famous brother-in-law; the architect Paul Hankar, one of the leading figures of the Belgian Art Nouveau. But besides that he had also a famous second cousin, namely Bobby Jaspar (1926-1963). The birthplace of Bobby Jaspar - a Belgian jazz saxophonist / flutist, is 'Maison Jaspar'. It was built in 1906 and designed in Art Nouveau style by his great-uncle, the architect Paul Jaspar. A memorial plaque on the house commemorates this.
