Emperor's office



The Chancellor's office, also called the Executive Office, was the formal office of the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. It was located in the heart of the Chancellor's Suite, part of the Republic Executive Building on Coruscant. It was over 500 meters above the surface of Coruscant.

The Chancellor's office was constructed along with the Executive Building following the Battle of Naboo, during Palpatine's tenure as the Republic's Supreme Executive. The style of the office was reminiscent of Palpatine's Senatorial apartments, with Sith-inspired red walls and the bronzium statues of ancient philosophers (in particular the Four Sages of Dwartii) and deities arranged around the room. It also included the Sith chalice as well as a bas-relief recovered from the excavation of a Massassi territory on Yavin 4, depicting a battle between Jedi and Sith during the Great Hyperspace War. His office also was home to other various Sith objects and sculptures, but their significance was seemingly unbeknown to the Jedi. One statue, in fact, embedded Palpatine’s Sith lightsaber which he planned on igniting and releasing from the stone when he thought the time was right. He did so shortly before his attempted arrest by Mace Windu, Saesee Tiin, Agen Kolar, and Kit Fisto. This resulted in a duel that met all four Jedi’s death in Palpatine’s office.



The office was accessed via a reception area staffed by Dar Wac, and guarded by two Red Guards. Palpatine's desk and Chair of Office faced the entrance from the opposite wall, most of which was taken up by a panoramic transparisteel window. This window offered an impressive view across Galactic City, reminding the occupants of the office that the matters discussed there would have far-reaching consequences. Four visitor's chairs were arranged in a semi-circle facing the Chancellor's desk, and a large holoprojector rose from between two sets of steps leading up to the desk.



From the entrance alcove, a corridor branched off to the right of the circular office, leading through a multipurpose anteroom containing a bas-relief sculpture of a battle between Jedi and Sith forces, to Palpatine's private office. Here, via a large ominously red projection screen, he could track the progress of the Clone Wars through his Clone Intelligence units, as well as obtain data from his databanks in the ChanPal SuRecon Center and his agents spread across the galaxy. Palpatine's private office was smaller than his main one and it had a metallic and black color sceme with three large black rotating chairs, a supercomputer and two black vases. The walls seemed to be made from some kind of metal and were engraved with continuous patterns. Opposite the entrance to the private office was another smaller panoramic window.

Following the formation of the Galactic Empire, Palpatine continued to make use of his office, using it to host meetings with his servants, including Darth Vader.
