Perceptual Theory: Figure-ground

Application in an interior: The figure-ground theory is used in interior design to create visual interest and balance within a space. This theory suggests that our perception is influenced by the contrast between the figure (the object of focus) and the ground (the background). In interior design, this can be achieved by using contrasting colors, textures, or patterns to make certain elements stand out and catch the viewer's attention.

For example, in a living room, a bold, patterned wallpaper can be used as the figure against a neutral, solid-colored sofa as the ground. This creates a visually stimulating focal point within the room and adds depth and dimension to the space. Additionally, using contrasting colors for furniture and decor can also help to create a sense of balance and visual interest within the interior.
