Dorm Life

When you shop for furniture do you typically:

When you were outfitting your dorm/first apartment, who paid for the things you needed to buy?

Estimate how much money you spent to outfit your first dorm/apartment; include everything from bedding, shelves, bathroom stuff, etc.:

Who had the FIANL decision on the items you purchased?

How important are eco friendly products to you?

What was the hardest thing to find a place for in your dorm/apartment in terms of storage (i.e. my printer was too big for my desk so it was the hardest thing to find a place for)?

What was the biggest decision factor involved with purchasing things for your dorm/first apartment? Select up to two choices.

When picking out the style/design of the items you purchased, what guided you?

What was the setup of your first dorm concerning the beds?

Out of the list below, pick one thing that you would’ve wished you’d had in your first dorm/apartment?

If an item was convertible or had multiple uses, like an ottoman that doubles as a storage cube, would you be willing to pay a little bit more for it?

When outfitting your dorm/first apartment, what types of colors were you drawn to for not only furniture but bedding and decorative accessories?

Think about the average size of your friends’ first dorm or apartment, what was the relative size of yours?

Finally if you would like, share any other thoughts about your first dorm/apartment. Think about things you needed but could not find in the store. Think about space issues. Think about decorating issues. Any additional thoughts that would help out someone who is designing hard goods and decorative accessories for dorms and first apartments. Thank you for your time!
