At 11 04 p m CST two vans delivered Bush artifacts to the West Wing and a 24 person SWAT team led a full office refresh. Clinton era items were replaced with Bush era decor while key keepsakes remained. The makeover touched rugs drapes and furniture and included updating the presidential desk and communications setup. The room now reflects Bush family artifacts and a lighter palette with traditional blues and yellows.
