Intercontinental Houston Medical Center

A Biophilic Bounty Brings a Hotel Lobby to Life!

Indoor nature captivates guests at this upscale luxury hotel in Houston, inviting them to contemplate the wonders of nature and the beauty of biophilia. The soothing, healing benefits of GOTW’s creation are on display, helping guests unwind as soon as they set foot inside the lobby space. GOTW’s installation consists of dozens of painstakingly installed, free-form micro-gardens placed along tall limestone tile walls behind the front desk, as if the gardens sprouted from the ‘cliffs’ naturally. The dashes of lichen moss, combined with the natural light of the lobby space, create a calming, cooling, park-like setting in the heart of the Texas Medical Center area.
