Claim: The West Wing is in the White House.

The Oval Office is the official office of the President of the United States . It is located in the West Wing of the White House Complex .   The room features three large south-facing windows behind the president 's desk , and a fireplace at the north end . It has four doors : the east door opens to the Rose Garden ; the west door leads to a private study and dining room ; the northwest door opens onto the main corridor of the West Wing ; and the northeast door opens to the office of the president 's secretary .   Presidents generally decorate the office to suit their personal taste , choosing new furniture , new drapery , and designing their own oval-shaped carpet to take up most of the floor . Artwork is selected from the White House 's own collection , or borrowed from museums for the president 's term in office .
