I started out sorting by color, then resorted to form (because the
arguments for it sounded so LOGICAL), then found I hated having things
sorted that way and went back to by color. I now have enough basic
bricks that they have to be sorted by color AND size (ziploc bags inside
cardboard lingerie drawers <g>, one drawer per color except white which
needs 2 drawers).
I do keep my non-basic bricks sorted by form: I have a tub of windows &
doors, a tub of fences/seats/flags/poles/railings, a tub of vehicle and
airplane stuff, a drawer of minifigs and accessories, a drawer of
vegetation, 2 drawers of slopes (separated into colors and angles inside
the drawer), etc.
