figure/ground we tend to see figures with similar characteristics—eg: shape, color, texture, etc. as belonging together

similaritysimilar figures with similar characteristics tend to be seen as belonging together
similar figures located close together are seen as a group; the visual attraction of masses
proximity
the tendency to close or complete incomplete figures or groups
closure
continuance group of figures arranged to imply a direction
translationthe movement of an object from point to point
rotationan object that is moved around a fixed axis
reflectionan object that is flipped or reflected 180 degrees over an axis
glide/reflectionthe object is reflected 180 degrees over an axis and then moved from one point to another
dilationthe object rem
ains the same in all aspects except for size and expands or contracts in relation to a fixed point

symmetric balancecharacterized by a central axis, regularity, congruency,
proportion and stability. An object that is reflected
over a central axis
asymmetric balanceunequal arrangements of objects over a central axis
ambiguous balanceunclear relationship between compositional elements
neutral balancerandomness, lacking emphasis or contrast
