In the year 1961 they entered the Kennedys to the White House siendo the hope of the USA back then, but contrary to what seemed they would only spend two years in the Presidential Mansion because of the fatal outcome that we all know.
Jackie Kennedy performed a huge transformation in the White House since he considered that the decoration that had remained after Truman's reconstruction was empty and lacking in historical content and did not fully represent his country. The remodeling was carried out with the help and experience of the interior designer Sister Parish, of which it should be noted that it was lthe first decorator to participate in the White House, later he would join them Stephan Boudin, French interior designer of various royal houses.
The Yellow Oval Room: what would become the family reunion room, they decorated it in Louis XVI style, putting yellow silk and velvet sofas. The curtains were designed by the interior designer himself.
What had previously been the Prince of Wales Room became Private dining room decorated with tapestry on the walls as the Oval Room of Diplomats, whose furniture and tapestry called "Landscape of North America" until the arrival of the Obamas they had not been practically changed.
The Blue Room, which is where the presidents of other countries are received, they changed it to a French Empire style.
The Kennedys slept in separate rooms. His decorated in sober tones, and hers in lighter and more feminine colors.
Both children's bedrooms they tried to decorate with a lighter air than the rest of the house. That of Caroline painted herself pastel pink with the furniture combined and John's in blue with white accessories.
Until the arrival of Michelle Obama, Jacqueline was the first lady who made the most changes in the White House, and it must be said that the day President JKF died He had not yet finished redecorating the house as he intended.
