Transforming Premium Hospitality Spaces with a Faux Green Wall at the LA Galaxy American Express Lounge
When it comes to creating unforgettable hospitality experiences, greenery isn’t just décor—it’s a brand statement. At the LA Galaxy American Express Lounge in Carson, CA, we partnered with Gensler and Shawmut to deliver a stunning, low-maintenance faux green wall and planter system that elevates the guest experience while meeting the demands of a high-traffic venue.
Why a Green Wall for Hospitality Design?
Green walls bring life, vibrancy, and a sense of nature into premium spaces. For hospitality environments like the American Express Lounge, these installations do more than look beautiful—they:
- Enhance the guest experience and perceived value.
- Create photo-worthy moments for social sharing.
- Support brand storytelling in a visually impactful way.
But here’s the truth: achieving this level of design in a high-traffic lounge is no small feat. It requires durability, precision, and a maintenance-free solution that looks lush year-round.
The Challenge Behind the Beauty
This project had unique challenges:
- Continuous guest traffic: Hospitality spaces see constant use, food and beverage service, and event turnover.
- Minimal downtime: No tolerance for maintenance interruptions or plant replacements.
- Consistent aesthetics: Lighting and camera conditions vary, so the greenery had to look flawless in every scenario.
- Complex coordination: Multiple stakeholders, including architects, contractors, and brand partners, needed seamless integration.
Design Details That Make It Pop
Our solution? A commercial-grade faux greenery system engineered for:
- Visual Impact: Multi-species foliage for depth, color variation, and a natural, non-repeating look.
- Durability: UV- and wear-resistant materials built for continuous hospitality use.
- Low Maintenance: No watering, trimming, or soil management—ever.
- Precision Integration: Panels and planters sized to align perfectly with Gensler’s architectural vision.
Key elements included:
- A full-height green wall as the lounge’s focal point.
- Integrated planters to soften architectural lines and create visual zones.
- A modular system design for easy installation and future service access.
What to Know Before You Start
If you’re planning a hospitality greenery project, here’s what matters most:
- Choose commercial-grade materials: Hospitality spaces demand durability.
- Plan for integration: Coordinate early with architects and contractors.
- Design for photo moments: Think about lighting and camera angles.
- Go maintenance-free: Faux greenery saves time and budget without sacrificing aesthetics.
Why It’s Worth It
Yes, it requires planning and precision. But the payoff? A premium, immersive environment that guests love—a space that elevates the brand, creates shareable moments, and stays lush year-round without the headaches of live plant care.
