Cabinet Room, Executive meeting room in White House, United States
The Cabinet Room is a large space in the West Wing of the White House featuring a distinctive oval table as its centerpiece. It contains video screens, audio systems, and modern technology designed to support important government meetings and presentations.
The room underwent major renovation during President Truman's administration in the 1950s, when new security and communication systems were installed. These upgrades established its current design and functionality.
Cabinet members sit at assigned seats around the table, each position reflecting their role within the executive branch. The seating arrangement shows how the nation's top leaders are organized and work together.
The room is designed for executive-level meetings and provides a functional environment for discussions. Access is limited and tightly controlled, with visits typically available only through official tours or special arrangements.
The President's chair is slightly taller than the others and features a hidden switch for activating communication systems built into the furniture. This subtle detail reflects the practical expressions of authority embedded throughout the space.
