“It’s mental exhaustion to change everything around...”
“If my room decor looks bare, I feel sadder
as a person”

The Problem
Dorm room planning is notoriously overwhelming. Without visualization tools or clear dimensions from their school, students are forced to guess how an entire academic year of their life is going to fit into a tiny space.
Instead of an exciting milestone, moving in becomes a guessing game, leading to cluttered rooms, wasted time, and money lost on items purchased impulsively.
