I play with different ways to order things like from activity type, to fequently/rarely used items, to color. Oh, and this was for a clothing closet, but I've used this in other scenarios as well. @jason: If that's weird, I've even annotated drawers and cabinet in my workspace. It's a very geek attribute. ^^ While I haven’t done paper prototyping with cutouts, I’ve used post-its to categorize items in my closet and move them around on a piece of paper.

I thought i was just weird doing it, but you've made me feel a lot better about it. Nice one Phil, I have done this before. even migrating to brown paper cut to shape.

I've found on a few occasions that when you explain things using an analogy that relates to a real world situation (such as planning the design of the rooms in your house), people tend to get the importance of prototyping more.
