Crowdsource: We Want To See Your Designer Dorm Rooms

Moving into a dorm is one of the most memorable parts of student life. Between fitting your entire world into a small space and making it feel like home, dorm decorating is a rite of passage for every college student. Some people keep it simple with string lights and your choice of Friday Beers flag, while others go all out with coordinated decor, color schemes, and custom setups that make Pinterest look like amateur hour.

But what about taking things a step further? Recently, we’ve heard that some students have worked with professional designers to elevate their dorm room style. Whether that means hiring a decorator, getting help arranging furniture, or even having someone design a perfectly put-together bed setup.

Now we want to hear from you! Have you or anyone you know ever hired a designer to decorate your dorm room or bed? Did you go for a full makeover, or just get some help picking supplies on Amazon?

Share your experience (and a photo or two) using the form below, and your responses could be featured in an upcoming Onward State story highlighting the most creative and unique dorm transformations on campus.
