The picture compares the layout and furniture between a single student room and a dual one at an Australian university. Overall, the two-student room is more spacious, catering for more furnishings, meaning a higher weekly rental cost than the room for one student.
Regarding size, both rooms share the same length (6 meters), while the two-person room is more spacious (4 meters) than the other room (2.5 meters), prompting students to pay more ($350/week compared to $200/week).
As one enters, on the left of the entrance, the two rooms have similar features, including a bathroom, a bookshelf, a study desk and a bed. In addition, the big difference between these rooms is that the bigger room has a table with two chairs right near the entrance, which are unincluded in the smaller one.
On the right of the entrance is a kitchen corner comprising a microwave, a stove, and a sink in both rooms. However, the single room’s kitchen has a more confined cooking space, while that in the double-occupant room faces the wall of the entrance because of the lengthened width, allowing more space for cooking. Moreover, next to the kitchen, both rooms also have a television. However, the bigger room has less space because of an additional study desk next to the television, and next to which is a second bed located in the far right corner, separated from the first one by two cupboards.
