This link presents a less heavy look at the Gestalt Laws, which was noted numerous times in the Lang chapter on "Cognitive Maps and Spacial Behavior."
I had a basic idea of these principles prior, but I thought this broke it down well using visuals, which of course make things easier to understand.

Shannon,
ReplyDeleteThis is a useful document. I hadn't really thought of Gestalt principles in terms of graphic design though it is really useful. I'd like to talk about this in class tonight - in the context of the way we see the cityscape, the interior environment.
Please raise this so we can address it as a group.
Thanks for this!
