Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
