GESTALT PRINCIPLES • Proximity: when we see a number of similar objects, we tend to perceive them as groups or sets • Similarity: When similar and dissimilar objects are mingled, we see the similar objects as groups
GESTALT PRINCIPLES • Continuity: we tend to see continuous patterns, not disrupted ones • Simplicity: We see the simplest shapes possible • Closure: when we see a familiar pattern or shape with some missing parts, we fill in the gaps
