Beyond style, as a College student, I think that if I had to live in Xavier's room, I wouldn't be able to study: it's cluttered, distracting, and absolutely impractical for managing study materials. Laura and Patrick, on the other hand, nailed it with their setup: Perfect colors for concentration, space for personal items, and excellent space management for the fornituers . I wouldn't know whom to choose between them.

[@mzrhub]

Patrick's idea of shelves and placing the desk near the window are useful it gives natural light for study. Laura's aesthetics ,beds and wallpapers overall everything perfect....the walls should not be maps, it needs to have space for showcasing our personality and interests like a gallery.

[@jennafriedrich]

I LOVE this series! I wasn’t super into Patrick’s until the very end, his finishing touches really pulled the whole room together and felt the most practical with the added storage drawers, but maybe not the most practical budget wise (but budget doesn’t matter in this series 😂). Laura’s was more of my preferred color pallet, but didn’t feel so much like a dorm. I loved the fabric hack - spending that money on fabric you can reuse I can get behind, but wouldn’t spend that on a peel and stick you’d have to throw away. Xavier’s was so funny to watch, I love the inspiration of the trope of princess vs punk and I loved the narrative. His was somehow practical and completely impractical all at the same time 😂 I loved it

[@triciahlongwa6383]

Patrick's design is thoughtful, much better than the others, he actually put bookshelves

[@MissManasi]

Same thought. He also gave under bed storage.

[@moonpie21012]

[@samplesample7178]

Patrick's was probably the best out of the 3 definetly

[@potatoesss9793]

yesss

[@chynameetsworld]

ignoring the parameters of an actual dorm room, i would’ve loved patrick’s. i was a global studies major so the map wallpaper would’ve excited me. i also love that he’s the only one to make complete use of the wide windows for the desk wall. the cork and shelving is a nod to…the actual needs of a college student and the colors in the room are overall friendly. laura’s for me doesn’t feel like a dorm; it’s way too mature for just about every college student imo. and xavier’s design is close to what my actual dorm looked like because my roommate and i had different aesthetic aspirations (lol)

[@Skye_Writer]

Patrick's design didn't take the HVAC into account, though. Putting a desktop over it only traps the airflow, and I'm pretty sure is a no-go in a dorm room.

[@potatoesss9793]

I ADORED patrick's design ! also, I agree, laura's was too mature

[@KloonPreest]

I find it ugly, both sides

[@Noor-979]

Thats the beauty, no one has to live in it. It's pure fictional

[@MissManasi]

Patrick's design is clearly the best here. He gave a bookshelf and under-bed storage for the students. The world map and thought board were very thoughtful too. Using the long workspace was clever and he gave comfortable study chairs. There are blinds available in case if the outdoor lights are too direct. And he did all by making it colorful and inviting, and not boring.

[@studywithkenya]

I loved Patricks design because of the desk around the window....as a student I get motivated studying at a window

[@aggiegalletly9835]

I love that the guy that did the individualistic sides really went into the two extremes. He considered the functionality while still keeping the integrity of personality of the two “people” he was designing for. After all, realistically, sometimes you get two completely different people placed in a small space together. It’s a beautiful ode to individuality in a common space.

The lowering of the beds made it feel so much more intimate. In college my roommate and I had a similar kind of room but we turned it so I was the window side and he was closer to the door. Then we put the desks side by side between them because... it's way more comfortable to not have someone you barely know just kinda looking over at you while you sleep.

Patrick for me. I love the long desk in front of the window, something rarely, if ever, seen in dorms.

Xavier after designing a room with hundreds if not thousands of dollars in fabric and flooring/wall design: “we can’t afford [that mirror] because we’re college students”

[@Robert-cy3qx]

Xaviar's was INCREDIBLE !!! I LOVE his imaginative idea and character-creations - truly a joy to watch. He and Damon are so talented. and the others!

[@ishiiyoo]

So basically Laura was the only one who made a comfy space WHILE giving creative liberty to the individual occupants.

[@kirstenolson9972]

Xavier's room all the way. Love the creativity. And actually giving semi realistic options for how these students could achieve these looks.

[@900MeTube]

Through this channel i’ve learned that 1 out of every 3 designers are sane in the head

[@wildoatling]

I love that they thought about carpet and paper mache bedposts, but barely any thought at all into storage haha.

I love this series, i also feel like people take the series a bit too seriously, so many people complaining about the dorm rooms loool. It's not really about the room, they are displaying their expertise, they get traction and exposure being on here for more clients, they are very aware about the restrictions of actual dorm rooms, but as they say EVERY EPISODE, No clients and no restrictions

[@liamchiang89]

I really wish they had called Darren and Noz back for this. They were my faves! Also, I really wanna have some of the stuff Xavier smoked before doing his dorm room 🤣

[@fantasylovemagic]

A combination of Patrick and Laura's desgins would be the best. Love the desk and shelves by the window and Laura's colours and textures. They just need to give proper chairs to those students.

[@jenniferchan498]

I love xavier's idea !! It will be rare you have a roommate with the same taste lol

[@warrenriley1383]

i wish they gave advice about how to practically makeover a dorm, yes lemme just pull out my spikes for my bed???

[@rmakgunel5615]

I like Patrick’s design. It’s warm, cozy and inspiring

[@lucastorres966]

inspires psychiatric regression

[@firdosvohra4315]

I was floored by Xavier’s storytelling

[@beabez1]

You need to do a video where someone with no design experience pretends to be one of the designers because at this point I don’t think I could tell the difference lol

[@JutaStokes]

It definitely feels like they did that for this video!

[@magietagie]

I am going to have nightmares about the room Xavier Donnelly created!!! 😬🫣😳

[@macaylacortez1689]

I can tell these designers have never stayed in a dorm or don't remember what it's like to be a student 😂

[@bosniacastro4285]

Ok, but the room of the princess and punk is STUNNING, I will totally adore to live there
