When storage containers will be in plain view, make efforts to get similar styles and colors (try to use no more than 3 colors and make sure they compliment each other) to not add visual clutter.
Keep like colors with like colors in little color coordinated storage families:

I like the way you organized your office supplies. You gave me an idea on how I could use my computer desks as storage at the same time.
