This is an exploration of different facades I can use for a storage system. Each zone has has a different function and scale, however the whole needs to work together as if it were Art. The colored backdrop explores the use of optional backing material.

They all seem to rank similarly. It seems to me that the 'Course' and the 'Fine' pattern seem to be favored, but the 'Medium' pattern is more practical. They all have their place.
Conclusion:
How these patterns will be used isn't the difficult aspect. Getting a system which created an interesting look and feel is the hard part.
