Perception & Visual Processing
Gestalt Principles
A set of principles describing how the human visual system organises visual elements into groups or unified wholes. Key principles include proximity, similarity, continuity, closure, and figure-ground.
In plain language
The brain groups things by proximity, similarity, continuity, and closure. Visual organisation communicates relationships before a word is read.
