Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our storage systems and services.

General Questions

What makes your approach different from other storage solutions?

We focus on logical systems based on how you actually use your space, rather than aesthetic trends. Our approach is data-driven, evidence-based, and designed for long-term sustainability. We analyze usage patterns, workflow, and behavioral factors to create systems that feel intuitive and require minimal maintenance.

Do I need to buy special containers or products?

Not necessarily. We design systems that work with what you have whenever possible. When purchases are needed, we recommend specific, functional items based on logical requirements, not aesthetics. Our focus is on the system logic, not the products.

How long does it take to implement a storage system?

Implementation time varies by space size and complexity. A single room might take 1-2 days, while a whole-home system could take 1-2 weeks. We provide detailed timelines during consultation. Many clients implement systems gradually over several weeks to minimize disruption.

Services & Programs

What's included in the initial consultation?

A 60-90 minute consultation (virtual or in-person), detailed space assessment, usage pattern analysis, written proposal with recommendations, program suggestions, and follow-up support. You'll receive a complete roadmap for implementing your storage system.

Can I do this myself or do I need professional help?

Many people successfully implement systems themselves using our resources and guides. Professional consultation is helpful for complex spaces, when you're feeling overwhelmed, or when you want expert analysis of your specific patterns. Our workshops teach you the skills to design systems independently.

Do you offer virtual consultations?

Yes! Virtual consultations work well for many clients. You'll share photos and measurements, and we'll conduct a video walkthrough. We've successfully designed storage systems for clients worldwide through virtual consultation.

Methodology & Approach

What is grouping logic?

Grouping logic is our method of categorizing items based on functional relationships, usage frequency together, and contextual relevance. Rather than grouping by item type alone, we consider how items relate to each other in your daily life, creating intuitive systems that mirror your natural mental models.

How do you determine access frequency?

We analyze your actual usage patterns through questionnaires, observation, and sometimes tracking. Items are categorized as daily-use, weekly, monthly/seasonal, or archive. Placement is then optimized for ergonomics and efficiency based on this data.

Will the system work for my whole family?

Absolutely. We design systems to be universally intuitive so anyone in your household can use and maintain them. Clear visual cues, logical placement, and simple rules ensure everyone understands the system without extensive explanation.

Maintenance & Long-Term Use

How do I maintain the system over time?

Well-designed systems require minimal maintenance. We recommend a 15-minute weekly reset and quarterly reviews. Our maintenance tracker tool sends reminders and provides checklists. Most clients find maintenance becomes automatic once the logic is internalized.

What if my needs change?

Our systems are designed to be adaptable. The logical frameworks remain constant while specific implementations can evolve. We teach you the principles so you can make adjustments as your life changes. Many clients successfully modify systems years later using the original methodology.

Do you offer follow-up support?

Yes! All programs include follow-up support. Initial consultations include one month of email support. Full implementation programs include 6-month check-ins. We're available to answer questions and help with adjustments as you settle into your system.
