Navy blue sheets, a single yellowed pillow, the absence of a bedframe and the vague essence of Ikea décor - yes, you've arrived in a boy's room.

The images that come to mind when picturing a single man's room are vivid - often provoking a visceral reaction to those who have witnessed first-hand the depravity and mind-bending nature of entering a room so cluttered and yet somehow, so empty.

Bemused and intrigued by men in New York and the habitats they call home, comedian Rachel Coster, 28, bravely decided to wade into their duvet cover-free lodgings in a TikTok series called Boy Room - where she investigates the bedrooms of men in the Big Apple.

'I've been going on dates since I was, like, 18,' a now 28-year-old Rachel told The New York Times. 'By going to people's houses, not knowing them that well, their room is such an immediate way to get kind of a really clear picture of what I'm working with.'

Rachel pitched the idea for the series to Adam Faze, who owns the production company Gymnasium, and began posting videos in March.

So far, she has nine videos in the series, which is a mix between MTV Cribs and a home renovation show - stuck purely in the 'before' portion.

In each video Rachel and her camera crew interview the men inside their rooms before she reveals what she would change about their surroundings and how they're living.

As the series has gained recognition, men are now being submitted by people they know and are vetted by someone on Rachel's team after agreeing to appear on camera so that her reactions are unfiltered.

In Rachel's initial video, which has had over 1.2 million views, she dropped by 28-year-old Blake's room in Bushwick, New York.

Describing it as a 'classic messy guys room in a way that seems set decorated,' Blake's room is the first of many similar in the series, featuring unmade beds, piles of rubbish and a token item used as a bedside table.

Blake cannot remember if he washed the blankets on his bed and says he's able to 'vibe out' what clothes of his are clean from the piles strewn on his floor.

'My vision for Blake's room is if we got him maybe a garbage bin,' Rachel says at the end of the 1.29 minute long clip.

Middle Part, 32, Williamsburg, NY Welcome to Boy Room, the show where we investigate boys rooms. On today’s episode, @Rachel Coster travels to a terrifying crevice of a room to meet “Middle Part.” I don’t really know how else to describe the room. I’m still scared. a @Gymnasium series #apartmenttour #nyc #messy #boys #boyroom #comedy #funny #hoarders #newyork #dirty #gymnasium

'I would put all of his clothes that are on the floor onto the racks that are readily available,' she continued.

'I would also get him a desk and a ergonomic chair because I'm worried about his spine,' she added.

'There are 28-year-olds who have full houses and dogs and children,' she says thoughtfully in the clip. 'And Blake is only creating "sick beats" and nasty piles of T-shirts.'

In another tour, Rachel investigates the room of 24-year-old Luke living on the Lower East Side.

Luke has an affinity for bikes and a distaste for beds - sleeping on an unrolled futon couch surrounded by hanging bicycles and buckets of parts.

With highlights including a bottle of bleach, a dead plant and piles upon piles of rubbish, Luke says he feels 'at peace' when he's at home.

Another recent video is of alternative Y2K musician Middle Park, who refused to reveal his real name but did share his dimly lit home with Rachel and her viewers.

'His room looks like the basement of a suburban child whose mom is extremely lenient,' she said, adding his room had no windows, reeked of cigarettes but did offer refreshments - including 15-year-old spam, beef jerky and Sour Skittles.

The comments section of the videos are filled with people horrified at what they are seeing or admitting they have once or twice, dated a man with an eerily similar bedroom aesthetic

According to Rachel, the popularity of the posts come from a lot of the men not seeing a problem with how they're living.

'In New York, we're all hustling,' she told Curbed. 'It is easy for your space to become a total mess.'

She added a lot of people in New York are 'basically never home,' so it matters less if their homes are messy.

'Because you get home, you knock out or maybe you smooch someone, and you're out of there,' she pointed out.

The comments section of the videos are filled with people horrified at what they are seeing or admitting they have dated a man with an eerily similar bedroom aesthetic. 

'What's crazy is we have all been in a man's room like this,' one user wrote.

'My dad is 68 and has a boy room. It never ends,' another said exasperated. 

'Some girl probably crying for a text back from this man rn,' another mused. 

Others had a word of advice, as one wrote: 'Ladies!! Look at me!! You cannot and do not need to "fix" him!! No!!' a person joked.
