位于华盛顿的“人民之家”博物馆展览已更新其复刻版椭圆形办公室，以匹配唐纳德·特朗普第二任期内更为华丽、金碧辉煌的设计选择。
The People's House museum exhibit in Washington has updated its replica Oval Office to match Donald Trump’s flashier and more golden design choices from his second term.
威尔·怀斯特 华盛顿报道 —— 这里更加浮华。而且金色元素多得多。
WILL WEISSERT WASHINGTON — It’s glitzier. And there’s way more gold.
“人民之家”博物馆展览对其复刻版椭圆形办公室进行了彻底翻新，供参观者体验唐纳德·特朗普总统第二任期的设计选择。
People’s House museum exhibit has overhauled its replica Oval Office for visitors to experience President Donald Trump’s second-term design choices.
光亮的花瓶、金色调的螺旋装饰镶板、二十四幅装在厚重鎏金画框中的肖像画，以及挤满几乎每一个可用表面的摆件：特朗普在世界上最著名的工作空间中安置的那些洛可可式繁复装饰，已在距离白宫仅几个街区的宾夕法尼亚大道上的一家博物馆里，被精确复刻到了每一处壁饰贴花。
Gleaming vases, golden-hued swirling onlays, two dozen portraits in heavy gilded frames and knickknacks crowding nearly every available surface: the same rococo flourishes that Trump has installed in the world’s most famous workspace have been recreated down to each wall appliqué in a museum just up Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House.
“‘人民之家：白宫体验’的管理总监卢克·布拉迪表示：“椭圆形办公室虽具有政治性，但它确实也是美国人民的办公室。我们希望来这里的参观者能感觉到与这个空间更加紧密的联系。” 白宫公众参观不包括西翼。因此，白宫历史协会着手复刻椭圆形办公室，于2024年9月开放了该展览。其面积与真实办公室相同，参观者常惊叹于它显得如此狭小。
“As political as the Oval Office is, it really is also the office of the American people,” said Luke Boorady, managing director of The People’s House: A White House Experience. “And we want visitors who come here to feel more connected to this space.”Public tours of the White House do not include the West Wing. So the White House Historical Association set about recreating the Oval Office, opening the exhibit in September 2024. It is the same size as the real one, and visitors often marvel at how small it feels.
一支专业设计团队一直在对展览进行改造，他们在共和党总统特朗普不在办公室时实地考察了他的椭圆形办公室。北卡罗来纳州的专家负责复刻特朗普的众多壁饰贴花，印第安纳波利斯的一位专家负责其他专业物品的3D扫描和打印。加利福尼亚州的镜框制作匠人为特朗普挑选的24幅肖像画的金色画框进行手工雕刻，来自加拿大和弗吉尼亚的团队则负责花瓶及其他桌面摆件的复刻工作，布拉迪说道。
A team of specialized designers has been making over the exhibit, visiting Trump’s Oval Office while the Republican president was away. Experts in North Carolina worked to recreate Trump’s many wall appliqués, while one from Indianapolis handled 3D scanning and printing of other specialized objects. California frame-makers did carving by hand for the gold frames of Trump’s chosen 24 portraits, and teams from Canada and Virginia worked on replicas of vases and other tabletop pieces, Boorady said.
展览中还有两面镜子和一份《独立宣言》复制品，正如特朗普的实际办公室里所摆放的那样。
There are also two mirrors and a copy of the Declaration of Independence, just like in Trump’s actual office.
总统正按照自己的喜好来改造白宫。在从政之前，特朗普是一名房地产开发商。如今，他正按照自己奢华的品味对白宫进行翻新，力求在任期内给美国首都留下属于自己的印记。
The president has molded the White House in his own image A real estate developer before he became a politician, Trump has revamped the White House to his extravagant tastes as part of his push to leave his mark on the nation’s capital while he is still in office.
上周，《时代》杂志问及特朗普卸任后会最怀念白宫的哪个地方，他回答道：“这个美丽的房间——任何人都无权将其拆除。那就是椭圆形办公室。”他还表示，已吩咐幕僚长将经过改造的办公室打造成“联邦地标”。除了在椭圆形办公室内大量使用奢华装饰外，特朗普还铲平了玫瑰园附近的草坪，修建了一处类似他在佛罗里达州马阿拉歌庄园中的露台。此外，他还在白宫住宅区与西翼之间的柱廊上悬挂了一排历任总统的肖像。
When asked by Time magazine last week what he would miss most about the White House after he leaves, Trump said, “This beautiful room that nobody should be allowed to rip down. The Oval Office.”He said he had asked his chief of staff to make his altered office “a federal landmark.”In addition to filling the Oval Office with bling, Trump paved over the lawn near the Rose Garden to build a patio space reminiscent of the one at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida. He installed a row of presidential portraits along the colonnade between the White House residence and the West Wing.
特朗普还在白宫南北两侧的草坪上竖起了高大的旗杆，对棕榈厅以及著名的林肯卧室内的浴室进行了翻修，并下令修复北门廊前的圆柱。不过，最令特朗普引以为傲的似乎是耗资4亿美元正在修建的舞厅——为修建该舞厅，他甚至下令拆除了东翼建筑。“实际上，这个项目能让我放松下来，”上周在一次与工程无关的活动中，总统这样谈及舞厅项目。
He erected towering flagpoles on the North and South lawns, renovated the Palm Room and the bathroom that is part of the famous Lincoln Bedroom and ordered restoration work of the North Portico’s front columns But Trump seems proudest of the $400 million ballroom that he is building after ordering that the East Wing be demolished“It relaxes me, actually,” the president said about the ballroom project during an unrelated event last week.
如今，特朗普对白宫有着极强的“主人意识”。最近，在为禁止CNN、《MSNBC》以及《Politico》进入白宫的举措辩护时，他一时口误说道：“我有权不让他们进入我的——进入‘人民的家’。”
Trump’s sense of ownership of the White House is now such that while recently defending his attempt to ban CNN, MS Now and Politico from its grounds the president had a momentary slip of the tongue. “I don’t have to let them into my — into the people’s house,” he said.
特朗普第一任期椭圆形办公室的复制品也经历了翻新。最初，白宫历史协会设立的椭圆形办公室复制品采用了时任民主党总统乔·拜登的设计风格。2024年大选结束后，该协会又对展品进行了更新，使其风格与特朗普第一任期时的设计保持一致。
A replica of Trump’s first term Oval Office gets a makeover When the White House Historical Association first opened its Oval Office duplicate, it mirrored Democratic President Joe Biden’s design. After the 2024 election, the association updated the exhibit to match Trump’s first-term style.
上周，一支由25人组成的团队从周一清晨一直工作到周五深夜，为第二任期内对椭圆形办公室的改造做准备，并于周六完成了最后的润色工作。
Last week, a crew of 25 people worked from early Monday through late Friday to get the second-term transformation ready, making the finishing touches on Saturday.
布拉迪称，拜登是第一位在椭圆形办公室壁炉上方悬挂两层肖像画的总统。而特朗普则进一步将这一做法推广到整个房间，墙上挂满了各类肖像，包括乔治·华盛顿、安德鲁·杰克逊以及本杰明·富兰克林的画像。
Boorady said Biden was the first president to hang double layers of portraits over the Oval Office fireplace. Trump has expanded that all around the room, stacking the walls with portraits including those of George Washington, Andrew Jackson and Benjamin Franklin.
在真正的椭圆形办公室中，人们使用镀金工艺来提升色彩的鲜艳度。而在复制品中，工作人员则采用了特殊的涂料。布拉迪表示，为避免游客走动时造成墙面剥落或其他损坏，他们并未使用镀金工艺。
In the real Oval Office, the colors are made more brilliant by using gilded gold leaf. In the replica, crews used a paint solution. Boorady said they did not use gold leaf to protect against chipping or other wear-and-tear from visitors moving through the area.
据玛吉·哈伯曼与乔纳森·斯旺在《政权更迭》一书中记载，特朗普曾试图用强力胶水将金质装饰品粘贴到椭圆形办公室的壁炉上。不过在这间复制品办公室里，工作人员并未使用任何强力胶水。他们借助激光水平仪和临时粘合剂将物品固定在墙上，并对照原版办公室的设计图反复核对位置，最后才将众多装饰品钉牢。
Trump was once spotted using superglue to try to affix gold ornaments to the Oval Office fireplace, according to Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan in their book “Regime Change.”But no superglue was needed in the replica office. Crews used laser levels and temporary adhesive to fix items to the walls, checking their work for accuracy against renderings of the actual office before nailing many adornments to the walls.
特朗普的椭圆形办公室并非全是新添置的物品。许多陈设历经岁月考验仍被保留下来：比如里根时期留下的米色花纹地毯、克林顿任内安装的金色窗帘，以及小布什执政时期购置的沙发与座椅。
It’s not all new flair with Trump There are many things in Trump’s Oval Office that have stood the test of time: a beige-patterned rug from the Ronald Reagan era, gold draperies from Bill Clinton’s tenure, and couches and chairs from the George W. Bush White House.
当然，这里也有一张“坚定桌”的复制品。参观者可以坐在椅子上，坐在这张仿制桌后体验一番——自1880年该桌子被赠予拉瑟福德·B·海斯总统以来，特朗普及历任总统都曾使用过它。
Of course there is a copy of the Resolute Desk Visitors to the People’s House are allowed to sit in the chairs and behind the replicated desk, which Trump and most presidents have used since it was gifted to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880.
白宫历史协会并未透露打造这间复制品椭圆形办公室的具体费用。该协会由第一夫人杰奎琳·肯尼迪于1961年创立，不接受政府拨款，资金主要来源于私人捐赠及纪念品销售。
The White House Historical Association declined to say how much remaking the replica Oval Office cost. The organization, created in 1961 by first lady Jacqueline Kennedy, receives no government funding, and raises money through private donations and sales of retail merchandise.
2025年8月，特朗普在未经事先通知的情况下造访白宫，期间顺道参观了礼品店。当被问及特朗普是否会亲自来看看仿制版办公间时，布拉迪回答道：“不清楚。”不过他又补充说，特朗普“随时都受欢迎”。
Trump briefly stopped by its gift shop during an unannounced visit to the People’s House in August 2025. Asked whether Trump would come for a personal peek at his newly replicated workspace, Boorady replied, “I don’t know” before adding that he is “always welcome.”
