Renaissance Club Sport:
hotel and fitness club, Walnut Creek, California

The Renaissance Club Sport is an upmarket fitness centre, hotel and restaurant complex.  The plant displays were given a Merit award at the 2004 California Interior Plantscape Association (CIPA) awards.

The plant displays were designed to reflect the Art Deco style of the building.

The displays were designed by Lisa Wilson of the San Francisco branch of Initial Tropical Plants.
