Gestalt Theory

  We are going to work on Gestalt Theory:
Gestalt is an important trend in psychology,it was born in Germany at the beginning of the 20th century with Christian von Ehrenfels. 
The translation of the term “gestalt”would come close to “totality" or "unify whole". 
“The whole is more than the sum of its parts” 

Here you have some basics on the Laws they developed: 

-SIMILARITY 
-CONTINUATION 
-CLOSURE 
-PROXIMITY 
-FIGURE & GROUND
