Many people design their storage to match the flow of traffic within their house, but how do you think that flow plan developed in the first place? In almost every case, a flow plan is determined not by what a person does during the day but by where he or she stores things. We may think that we have stored things to suit our behaviour, but usually we have unconsciously adjusted our actions to match where things are stored. Laying out storage space to follow the current flow plan will only disperse storage throughout the house.
