Law of Uniform Connectedness

  • Elements that are visually connected are perceived as more related than elements with no connection.

Takeaways

  1. Group functions of a similar nature so they are visually connected via colors, lines, frames, or other shapes.
  2. Alternately, you can use a tangible connecting reference (line, arrow, etc) from one element to the next to also create a visual connection.
  3. Use uniform connectedness to show context or to emphasize the relationship between similar items.
