Gestalt Laws

Gestalt Laws are principles that explain how our brains organize visual information into meaningful patterns. They include concepts like proximity (objects close to each other seen as a group), similarity (similar items grouped together), continuity (seeing smooth lines and curves), closure (filling in gaps to complete shapes), and figure-ground (distinguishing objects from their background). These laws help us quickly interpret complex scenes by simplifying visual data into organized, understandable units, allowing us to recognize shapes, objects, and relationships effortlessly.
