So, although you won't see it in my descriptions for other house tours, there were other houses that had dormers...)

In a house with a dormer, everyone still has roommates and a private room with your own closet, desks, dressers, place to sit/hang out, phone line, etc. The beds for sleeping are in one large room (called the "dormer") that is kept dark 24/7 and climate controlled. So, a person can take a nap at 2 in the afternoon in the dormer room without getting in a roommate's way who might want to be studying in or otherwise using your room. If you like to sleep in, you wouldn't have to worry about being disrupted by an early riser roommate, etc.

P.S. My comments above should not necessarily be construed as a hint that I ended up in a house with a dormer. (Or, that I didn't end up in a house with a dormer either.) I had a lot of friends in a lot of chapters, and learned plenty of details about their housing setups throughout my college years.


hmm, okay. so this format works out well also if non-housed sisters (i could imagine that some sisters commute or have their own apt) decided to stay the night?

im still finding the setup weird, outside of my non-NPC scope and what not. but what matters is that it makes sense for you.
