Colour in the White House

In honour of Inauguration Day in the United States, I have decided to post a selection of photos featuring the interior decor and exterior splendour of The White House. These photos are selected from an article featured in Architectural Digest, March 2008, photography by Derry Moore.

The Green Drawing Room


The Vermeil Room


The Queen's Room


The Palm Room


The West Colonnade



The South Lawn


Breathtaking!!

By contrast, the official residence of Canada's Prime Minister, 24 Sussex Drive, is reportedly "...a dump...badly in need of repairs..." Now don't get me wrong, I love my country, but COME ON!!! We can do better than that!!

This is one of the few photos I could find of the residence:


As my Civic duty, I would like to offer my interior decorating services to PM Harper. All I ask in exchange is for photos of the finished interiors to build my portfolio!!
