Worked example
Two people share a closet but one person’s seasonal items crowd the daily clothing rail.
Assign each person a defined section, reserve high storage for infrequent items and keep shared linens in a separate labeled area.
How to test it
Ask each user to retrieve and put away a typical set of belongings.
