A Perfect mess : the hidden benefits of disorder : how crammed closets, cluttered offices, and on-the-fly planning make the world a better place
Abrahamson, Eric & Freedman, David H.

In fact, they contend that "moderately messy systems use resources more efficiently, yield better solutions and are harder to break than neat ones." - cover.
