Organize for Perception
Perceptual Organization
Primary types
1. Discriminating Primitive Features - Allow visuals to pop out during search like color, motion, orientation, and size and these get put together with objects to create meaning. Can also help separate between textures, and this helps us identify the objects and backgrounds.
2. Grouping Visual Information into Meaningful Units - Shows the audience which visual parts go together. As we start to scan a graphic design artifact we essentially scan all the parts and organize them into groups. From there the information can show the relationship between the grouped elements to one another and the whole.
Boosting Cognition
Sometimes a person can perceive something even though they are not consciously paying attention. If interested that something cand moved on up to a conscious level of attention.
Building a structure for a graphic can create help that of the preattentive process. If the inherent structure is recognized then the overall picture can be perceived.
Texture Segregation
We can distiguish between foreground and background. Can be seen as a figure or dominant shape and any without texture is seen as ground or neutral form.
