The 4 core principles of Gestalt theory

1. Emergence

The principle of emergence states that we attempt to make sense of the whole before we start identifying its parts.When we see an object, we first try to take in its outline, then we compare the outline against other things we’ve seen before. If we find a match, we assume we know what it is, and we might then start to analyze its components. If we don’t find a match, we might then start to analyze the parts in pursuit of a whole.

2. Reification

The principle of reification states that our minds fill in gaps in visual information in order to identify objects. That means that you don’t have to see the entirety of something to understand what it is, though the simpler or more widely recognized the whole object is, the easier it’ll be to recognize it by a part.Which means you should have no trouble recognizing the meaning of this symbol:

We make your project a reality.

We know what it takes to get the job done. We’ll create a detailed, cohesive plan set to guide smooth permitting, bidding, and construction processes. We will uphold the design integrity and quality during construction to bring a space that provides a return on your investment and leaves a lasting impression.

The project doesn’t end here. After all, we didn’t just build a new space, but a solid relationship.
