Door : ENA


This beautiful building entrance is the " Ecole National d'Administration" (ENA) Parisian offices on the rue de l'Observatoire in the 6th arrondissement not far from the Luxembourg gardens. The school itself has move to Strasbourg a major city in the east of France but they still have offices in Paris like this one with this Arabic looking entrance.  
The school is known in France for being the one where more politicians go. The writing on top of the door is France national motto "Liberty Equality Fraternity".

Indeed a beautiful doorway. Modern 'architects' seem unable to create things of beauty like this.

I agree with Louis la Vache.

Love the interesting photos that you share with us. Merci.

The reason modern "architects" don't do work like this is because it's too expensive.
