Palais Royal metro entrance at Place Colette Paris France
The entrance on Place Colette was redesigned by Jean-Michel Othoniel, as the "Kiosque des noctambules" (Kiosk of the night-walkers), and completed in October 2000 for the centenary of the Metro. Two cupolas of the "Kiosque des noctambules" (one representing the day, the other the night), made of glass beads coloured and threaded on a structure of aluminium, make an unexpected and original work in the traditional environment of the Place Colette.
