Making Your Uni Room A Home Away From Home With UO

This is a SB Verified post.

Take your uni room from prison cell to cosy chic with Urban Outfitters.

Uni rooms don’t tend to be glamorous. Far from it.

If you’re lucky, you might get a room that’s a blank canvas (aka. ‘The landlord special’ of painting over everything) but at least you can add your own stamp to it.

Adding your own touch to your uni room is one of the first things you should do; making your space a home away from home can help reduce feelings of homesickness and can actually boost your mood!

For the coolest and quirkiest home decor, look no further than Urban Outfitters home where you can use our Urban Outfitters student discount to deck out your room with all the fun essentials you need.

In this article:

We’ve also got to shout out the chef’s kiss selection of bath mats Urban Outfitters home have available; you’ve probably seen these all over your socials.

Urban Outfitters home has everything from bedding to prints, and we’ve got the hottest picks for you to choose from. Don’t forget to use the Urban Outfitters student discount for a cheaper haul!

Bedding is a really quick and easy way to add some personality to your uni room. And what’s currently trending? Stripes, pink, and ruffles galore.

Available in King or Double, this red stripe ruffle duvet set from Urban Outfitters is so gorgeous! The frills, the stripes, the colours.

This will for sure revamp your dreary uni room.

If pink and frills aren't your thing. Moody, floral, cosy.

Subtle florals in a muted purple colour.

Available in King, Double, Single.

We (and everyone on socials) are loving this cinched duvet set. It screams chic and will make any bed look 5*.

Quite simply obsessed.

Available in King and Double.

Cushions are perfect for adding character to your bed and your room.

A motto to live by, that's for sure.

There's nothing like a bit of tongue-in-cheek humour and it would definitely be an ice breaker during Freshers.

We can't get enough of pink ruffles, can you tell?

Add a little touch of luxury to your room with this velvet cushion. Get several of the same cushion or mix-and-match.

Checkerboard is such a classic pattern, and combining it with black and white makes it even more timeless.

This cushion will follow you from pre-uni to post-grad. Cute, fluffy, and basically a neutral.

Rugs are perfect for hiding ugly uni-hall floors and are a damage-free way of adding some colour to your room.

Another checkered piece, this time giving more colour.

This huge rug will make your room super cool and cosy, with a touch of retro vibes thanks to the soft colours.

A rug runner is great for narrow uni rooms or if you want to highlight the entrance into your room — it'll be like your very own version of a red carpet.

The wiggle-style edging gives it a little playfulness and it's boosting our dopamine just by looking at the image!

If you're short on floor space, this little rug will be the most adorable addition to your uni room.

The tattoo-style illustrations are cool and eclectic, and will definitely make a statement.

Prints are a quintessential part of any uni bedroom, so adorn your walls with these hot prints from UO.

Guinness has become a super trendy and popular pint recently, so if you're a fan, celebrate the stout-y goodness by hanging this print on your wall.

Today is gonna be the day that you put this print on your wonderwall.

Too much? Thought so.

Only cool people like Oasis; show off that you're one of them.

Relive your recent teenaged angst with this print.

It's minimal, so will be a subtle addition to your walls, but will definitely make a statement.

If you fancy knowing what your fellow students are buying, we’ve got you covered. We looked at our Student Beans data to see what students are buying from UO with their Urban Outfitters student discount (Year to date so far) and it’s confirmed. Ya’ll have taste.

Here are what students are adding straight into their baskets from Urban Outfitters home.

What does this tell us? It tells us students are giving their uni rooms a personal and eclectic touch with mostly duvet sets (practical and stylish, fairs!). But students are also seeking extra dopamine hits within their routines by adding kitsch mugs and plates into the mix.

Fancy buying any of these yourself? Don’t forget to use the Urban Outfitters student discountfor money off.
