New photographs of Barack Obama's show how he has changed the decor of the room, after occupying the most powerful office in the world.

Metal gadgets and American Indian pottery have taken the place of Bush's decorative china. Martin Luther King Jr's bust and a framed programmed from the 1963 March on Washington adorn the walls.

He keeps a wooden pen holder gifted to him by Gordon Brown on his desk.

The table behind his desk is full of family photographs, which reminds the President "why I am doing, what I am doing?"

Artwork and ornaments from the National Museum of the American Indian and the National Museum of American History's patent are lined on the bookcases.

A bowl of apples and a bowl of M &Ms for young visitors are placed on the coffee table.

However, certain things have not been changed. These include a sculpture by Frederic Remington 'The Bronco Buster' and paintings of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington.
