It's possible to have a dust-free room but it's very expensive. Ask Intel.
If you want to minimize the dust in your room here are a few things you can do without installing air scrubbers:
- buy an air cleaner for that room and keep the doors and windows closed
- install a "dust zapper" in your ventilation system (somehwat expensive, but we had one growing up because my brother was very allergic)
- use an allergy filter in your ventilation system
- install filters in your air vents in that room. Cheesecloth will work in a pinch but they have more heavy-duty filters at most home improvement stores.
- get rid of carpets and rugs - if you have to have a rug, natural fibers like sisal are best. If you have heavy fabric curtains, or textured fabric curtains, replace them with plain cotton. Be sure to clean your blinds frequently.
- sweep/swiffer/mop at least every other day - make sure you get the ceiling fan blades if you have one
- if you're allergic to the dust mites and not just bothered by dust, wash your bedding at least once/week in very hot water, maybe with that AllerCare stuff, and cover your mattress and pillows in dust-mite-proof covers.
I'm horribly allergic to dust/dust mites, as was my brother, so we learned lots of good tricks.
