As part of Give Me Five, a Renault initiative that creates or renovates several tennis courts each year in priority neighborhoods, PALM transformed a training area in Grigny. From the outset, we selected the site, carried out the technical studies and then developed a concept in which Renault's famous lozenge became the driving force behind the design.
To ensure a local presence, PALM invited artist Xkuz, a leading figure on the Paris region street art scene. His geometric motif deploys bursting lines that evoke the bounce and energy of the game. The creation covers the entire striking wall - the central element of the training facility - before extending onto the sports floor, the surrounding fencing and even the nearby electrical containers, painted to offer total visual continuity. To intensify the immersive effect, we printed the rest of the motif on a textile veil stretched behind the fence.
Responsible materials were used throughout: recycled rubber flooring made from used tires, and durable galvanized steel structures. To complete the experience, educational snowshoes in colors and shapes inspired by the Renault lozenge were produced and made available to the youngsters.
The sports field was inaugurated in the presence of members of the local club, surrounding schools and Renault representatives, offering a day of sporting and artistic discovery. This project illustrates Renault's commitment to encouraging inclusion through sport, and demonstrates PALM's ability to create sporting environments where design, responsibility and urban culture meet.
