Chapter 2

Proximity

There are different aspects to grouping things together. These are the aspects of proximity.
  • if you separate important facts by placing them in different places the information will be very hard to read and understand. But, if you group them close o each other the information is simplified and easier to read.
  • If information that is not related is grouped together, then it might not make sense at all and completely confuse the reader. It is vital that the objects that are grouped together are related.
  • Grouping information like a glossary in books and fliers makes finding information a lot easier. If this were all in one group then finding the information you need will take a long time.
  • Grouping things by using a certain font, text box or just placing them close to each other makes things a lot easier.
