This paper presents a design exploration [5] research project in which principles derived from Gestalt theory were applied as a framework for guiding humancomputer interaction (HCI). The analysis contained within examines how a Gestalt approach to HCI can be used to enhance engagement and promote user interaction. The concepts discussed in this analysis are supported by a series of informal user observations.
