Michel de Broin has kept the disco fever by constructing La Maitresse De La Tour Eiffel, the [largest mirror ball ever constructed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disco-ball-doughnut), which will hang 50 metres above the city of Paris suspended from a crane, bathing its citizens in simulated starlight. La Maitresse De La Tour Eiffel is one of the main exhibits for one of Paris’ [most famous festivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble), Nuit Blanche. All they need now is a french version of the Bee Gee’s greatest hits, and they’re set.
