Label on the front of the drawer with one of those wee label makers and everything in that category bucked in.
If you need labels you’re not using it often enough. I know right away where each thing I’m looking for is.
You can buy shadow foam and what not but personally I find it a waste of time and I’m on the tools 14 hours a day. Us pro do magnetic spanner racks which are good, buy yourself a socket tray that will do 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 or buy good quality rails.
Personally I use Mac Tools rails, not expensive and good quality when throwing them in a tool bag for a breakdown.
just to add about the foam being a waste of time, I know people have bought it and cut everything nicely to then have to buy more bits when they buy new tools As the layout is wrong or they haven’t left space.
tool grids are another option - plastic liner with removable clips. Kinda like a peg board thing.
This is one of my two boxes at work. It’s a snap on KRA 40” and I have a boxo 42” stack with the foam inserts and I never go near it now because there’s no room to add more into it.

Thats nigh on identical to how I have my own tools laid out in the drawers, no foam or anything just the non slip mat and everything neatly placed and it doesnt slide around or move anywhere and just like you said, when you get new tools or change things, you can easily integrate it into the space. There's a trade off between being too fussy and everyday practicality and efficiency.
