This quality was used again when the Room was being used by Neville in the seventh book. Against this, however, we must set the fact that Professor Trelawney stumbled in on Draco when she was looking for a place to hide her sherry, just as Draco completed testing his repairs. It should be noted that this room is not static; when Harry is first leading class there, he discovers that what he really needs is a whistle, and immediately discovers one on the shelf beside him.
In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , Neville , then resident in the Room of Requirement, is able to convince it to provide him a great deal of creature comforts, though it is unable to produce food; this is why it creates a tunnel to the Hog's Head, to allow Neville to get the food he needs from there. The requirement to think of what you need three times apparently only extends to the door of the room; once within the room, a single thought, if expressed urgently enough, seems to be sufficient.
Neville, we are told, is a master at expressing these thoughts. One thing that is mentioned in our discussion of this room, in the article on chapter 27 of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix , is how Draco came to be aware of the existence of this room. It is certain that he would never have learned of its existence from the House Elves, as Harry did, and it is unlikely that he would be wandering around the Seventh Floor looking to hide something, so was unlikely to stumble over it accidentally.
While this is never confirmed in the books, the favored theory it that Draco was told how to get into the Room of Requirement by Voldemort. Voldemort clearly knew about the junk warehouse aspect of the Room, as he hid a Horcrux, Ravenclaw's Diadem, there. It is this same aspect of the Room that Draco used to work on his Vanishing Cabinet. If Draco had wanted a place to be his workshop, and if he had been aware of the multiple nature of the Room, he would have asked for, and gotten, a well-equipped magical workshop and as a result would have been able to complete his task much more quickly.
This is why it is critical to the story Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince that it be someone other than Draco, in this case Pansy , who retrieves the membership list of Dumbledore's Army from the room in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ; if Draco had been made aware of the multi-aspect nature of the Room, by seeing it first as a Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom and later as a junk warehouse, he very likely would have understood that it could be better matched to what he needed.
As it was, the fact that he only uses the junk warehouse aspect of it would indicate that he received word of it from someone who only knew about that aspect, such as Voldemort.

However, in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince , we see Narcissa's fear that Voldemort had given Draco the task with the expectation that Draco would fail, thereby giving Voldemort an excuse to kill Draco and punish Lucius Malfoy further. It seems unlikely that Voldemort would want to help Draco at all if he had no expectations of Draco succeeding.
Furthermore, it would be out of character for Voldemort to share secrets of Hogwarts, especially as he considered that his home. It is possible that Draco, having learned of the existence of the room when he helped to capture Dumbledore's Army in Harry Potter and the Order of The Phoenix , tried the room thinking that he needed a place to hide something not specifically a workshop.
The many interconnections within the story are a hallmark of this author's work. We note that the Room of Requirement was first mentioned in book 4, and played major roles in each successive book; we also note that the nature of the Room, and its ability to be only one thing at a time, were major plot points in book 6.
From this, we believe that the author must have worked out the nature of the Room in significant detail by the beginning of her writing of book 5, so as to not accidentally prevent its use by Draco in book 6 or Neville and Harry in book 7.

A writer for Collider who also visited noted that the books in the Room even had appropriately magical titles: Winogrand's Wonderous Water Plants and Gawshawks Guide to Herbology , likely a tribute to DA leader Neville's green thumb. Even the sleeping bags had Hogwarts insignia on them. The nature of the Room of Requirement meant it went through multiple looks in the course of the films depending on what it was needed for at the time.
The version the filmmakers are most proud of was the Room of Hidden Things, which Harry accesses to hide the potions book in Half-Blood Prince, and again when searching for Rowena Ravenclaw's diadem in Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Craig told Vanity Fair that the production team started that final set by building a small model with Styrofoam, which they recreated with dolls' house furniture before finally making the human-sized version.
In a behind-the-scenes feature, art director Alastair Bullock explained the core was made of scaffolding covered with black plywood, with thousands of props layered on top.
