    Hi,

    The White House designed by an irish architect called James Hoban and was started with the references on Ireland's Parliment House and many other irish inspirations in the interior detailings. Later on, there were rumours saying that it resembled a Country House called Chateau De Rastignac in France. It is a neo-classical style limestone structure in Dordogne.
