Origins

The Law of Common Region is one of the Gestalt principles of visual perception, developed by German psychologists in the early 20th century. Gestalt theory posits that people naturally organize visual information into structured groups. By creating clear boundaries around related items, designers can improve the user’s ability to quickly understand and interact with content.
