Ligne 2

The Line x RATP la ligne

We have depicted the route of line 2 of the Paris subway and its 25 stations.

With this new format, it is possible to stick, magnetize and even place the line anywhere thanks to its cardboard support on which the names of the stations appear.

The Line x RATP is made in France.

Between Porte Dauphine and Place de la Nation, line 2 forms an arc serving the north of Paris. Built on the route of the Fermiers Généraux wall demolished in 1860, it opened in sections between 1900 and 1903. Part of its route was built as a viaduct to facilitate crossing the railway tracks of the Gare du Nord and Gare de l'Est stations, and to pass over the Canal Saint-Martin. The overhead stations of line 2 have a remarkable architecture: the platforms are lined with glass walls and are protected by a canopy supported by a metal openwork framework without pillars, a real architectural feat that reveals the light and luminous elegance of these stations.

Manufacturing

Drawing
Through a single stroke, The Line represents panoramas of cities, legendary mountain tops, or even mythical music tracks visually represented by their soundwaves.
Cutting
Lines are laser cut from metal sheets, with an extreme accuracy. This step is carried out in France by several partners, including a cooperative company.
Gilding
Lines are gilded with 24-carat gold via an electrolysis process ensuring agglomeration of gold on the line.
Boxes and silkscreen
Despite significant production volumes, The Line keeps an artisanal manufacturing approach for its packaging, and uses a silkscreen process to guarantee an original and qualitative result.
Packing
Final packing of products is then carried out within ESATs (work-based learning centers dedicated to people with disabilities).
