Perception, Usability, Eye-Brain
Look away, look again
This goes something like this:
- Look at an interface, it could be a screen you are designing.
- Look away, then look again.
Which parts of the UI feel like they are pushing into your brain - meaning you don't have to think much, you almost instantaneously "get it"?
Example
When I look away and back at this screenshot, The main image stands out, then the other images and the blue highlighted headings stand out.
