Gestalt Principles and Fitts’s Law

After reading the Gestalt Principles, I realized that these principles can be well applied to future design practice. By arranging related functional elements reasonably, the confusion of users in operation can be effectively reduced. For example, in shopping software, the product name, picture, price and purchase button are closely arranged together, which can help users understand and operate quickly. This is especially helpful for elderly users and can significantly improve their experience.

At the same time, Fitz’s law pays more attention to the details of operation, emphasizing how to improve the efficiency of interaction through the design of interface. According to this principle, the high-frequency operation button should be placed in a position that users can easily reach, especially at the edge or lower right corner of the screen. In shopping software, placing the “Submit Order” and “Pay” buttons in the lower right corner not only conforms to the user’s operating habits, but also effectively improves the interaction efficiency.
