        The object of study of gestalt pychology is perception, and in order to understand how it works, there were established different laws of perceptual organization.
        
        Similarity
        
        It suggests that similar items tend to be grouped toghether.
        
        If a number of objects are similar to one another, people will naturally group them toghether and percive them as a whole.
        
        Continuity
        
        It is the mind's tendency to perceive different objects that are toghether as a single uninterrupted object. We have a tendency to group and organize lines or curves that follow an established direction over those defined by sharp and abrupt changes in direction.

        Objects near to each other tend to be grouped together.
