#modular-storage

I'd love to be one of those people with a pristine WFH setup. But alas, my desktop is constantly littered with clutter. There are a lot of useful desk organizers out there, but I was hoping to find one that'll bring style to my work space in addition to tidiness. And I think I found it in the LEGO 4-Stud Brick Drawer. More than a place to stow tiny LEGO pieces, it might be the cutest desktop storage solution I've seen in awhile.

Everyone has that one "dead" space in their home that they don't know what to do with. For me, it's the 7.5-inch gap between my refrigerator and my kitchen wall. The untapped storage space has become a dumping ground for reusable tote bags (not pretty), and the narrow dimensions have made finding the right storage solution a serious struggle - nothing fits!

The capsule wardrobe concept, popularized in the 1970s by Susie Faux, proposes an exercise in synthesis: a compact set of versatile pieces, capable of combining in countless ways to suit different occasions. In visual culture, there are a few metaphors for this: in cartoons like Doug Funnie or Dexter's Laboratory, opening the closet revealed rows of identical clothes, ready to simplify life (and, in the case of animators, the work).
