But on another note, who goes with beige? Real estate agents advise using neutral colors like beige when you're preparing the residence for occupancy by a new but unknown occupant. :-)

I think it’s important that he have an office with a relaxing atmosphere for those occasional days when he’s not on vacation.

We need some rug reparations
The rug is full of quotes from dead white men
It is not diversified, there is no hope or change.....
It is not an equal opportunity rug....
I am outraged.../s

The coffee table is hideous. Looks like something from the scratch and dent section of Big Lots.

Each incoming POTUS has $100K allocated for redecorating. I think it’s covered by the (private) White House Historical Society.
My only problem with this makeover is that the end result looks like someone’s basement rec room. Dull. Drab. Boooooooooring.

Does Obama have any reference to HIS “57 states” anywhere?

Wish I could take credit for the above. It was the header for an article about the Oval Office in the NYTimes the other day.

vistors will be bored into somnolence I agree. Wow. There is so much beige in this room, that it looks like the inside of an upholstered car. Evidently, it is as I suspected. The Obama's have no taste nor do their hired decorators. Although to be fair to the hired help, the decision to devise this dull den may simply have been Mrs. Obama's, and the resulting yawn an example of following orders.

One of the words on a Chicago police test question was ‘sofa’. The whole test was thrown out years ago by the feds for being ‘unfair’ to minority blacks by using ‘white’ language. The test had to be dumbed down and the list of those passing was the first test was thrown out.

“Oval Office RUG gets History Wrong.”
Yeah, blame it on the rug!
The occupant of the office and chooser of the rug always gets history wrong!

Ya know, Obama could embrace his Colonial roots and say this was intentional. And I don't mean the Kenyan side.

It looks straight out of 1978...which is likely what he was going for.
If he was like my parents, he would have also put plastic over the couch.
