U.S. President Donald Trump has signed an executive order designed to prevent future commanders-in-chief from altering the decor and layout of the Oval Office.

The directive was issued following a series of significant interior redesigns implemented by Trump during his presidency, alongside major structural shifts that included tearing down the White House East Wing.

Under the new administrative order, upcoming administrations will face restrictions when attempting to modify the historic workspace. The move aims to preserve the physical and aesthetic continuity of the prominent presidential office for posterity.
