Fascinating japanese filingsystem
The Noguchi Filing System is fascinating. You put papers you want to file in envelopes, write a title and a date on them and stack them in a shelf. No classification, tagging or anything.
On the left side you put new envelopes, on the right the older ones that you still need.
Over time, some documents will “survive” and stay in the shelf – on the right side. Other envelopes are emptied and taken out of the shelf. You assign time once in a while to go through your documents, which will be quite fast as all the envelopes are marked and easy to open.
Unless you have several hundred envelopes, I think this would work! Anyone who have tried this exact system? Comment below or contact me.
