I have sections of my desk and kitchen drawers for that. Admittedly they are poorly organised with just about any junk thrown in.
The next step would be to more closely tailor the set of tools more closely to my actual needs, like a commercial workshop would. Get rid of the cruft and make sure what you keep is the best tool for each job with no more redundancy than you need.
A lot of tools I have two of are because I cheaped out the first time and it didn’t cut it. Some of them are multitools that do every job poorly, they are just a waste of space.
Then get dividers or foam inserts for the drawers.
