Similarity
Elements sharing similar visual characteristics are perceived to be more related than those not sharing similar characteristics. In UI design, we tend to perceive similar to each other elements as grouped or a pattern. We also might think that they serve the same purpose. Similarity can help us with organizing and classifying objects within a group and linking them with a specific meaning or function.

A graphic designer creates a poster for a music festival. The poster lists three headlining bands at the top, followed by a list of twenty supporting acts below. The three headliners are written in a large, bold, colorful font. The twenty supporting acts are all listed in a smaller, plain, white font. Which two principles of perceptual organization best explain why an observer would immediately see the headliners as a distinct and more important group than the supporting acts?
