Use broad homes
Group clothing by categories you actually use instead of subdividing every drawer by color, sleeve length, and occasion. Keep each destination near the laundry route where possible. Use suitable hanging or simple folds according to the garment rather than choosing a presentation that requires repeated precision. Leave enough capacity that returning a clean item does not mean rearranging everything around it.
Remove one friction point
Watch the task from basket to storage. Notice extra lids, distant rooms, confusing categories, or drawers that stick. Change the biggest obstacle first and test the result through a normal laundry cycle. Keep a small separate place for repairs and unresolved items so they do not interrupt every batch. If someone helps with laundry, label categories in terms both people understand. Define a manageable minimum for difficult days, such as putting away essentials and containing the rest cleanly. A system can be forgiving while still protecting garments and keeping the room usable.
