Abstract
The visual information design refers to the communication and exchange with the real world through the graphic signification. The understanding of a graph is a visual recognition process of the graphic object. The audience can feel the intangibility of the design work behind the tangibility during the transmission, perception, communication and resonance processes. The unconscious mind of the audience is aroused under the visual impact, thus reaching the goal of transmitting the concept of information appeal. Influenced by the holistic view of the Gestalt Psychology, the modern cognitive psychology highlights the comprehensive analysis of human cognitive process, while Gestalt psychologists lay the emphasis on the integrity of experience and behavior. According to the principle of Gestalt Psychology, the form perceived is not the direct imitation of an objective thing, but instead, it is the perceptual construction activity when eyes capture the thing. As a manifestation system in the visual perception research field, the Gestalt Psychology teases the related perceptual organization principles for the human cognitive process and promotes the development of the visual perception researches. Based on the Gestalt Psychology, it is proposed in this research to study psychological phenomena from the holistic dynamic structure, explore the visual information design, and exploit the design field of view and creative thinking, in an effort to form a new design philosophy which will play an important role in improving the aesthetic effect and visual impact of the design work.

Psychological and sociocultural needs, the visual information design embodies the harmonious relationships between man and society, man and nature, and man and man. As an objective existence of human percipience, the visual language transmits the specific information contents via the visual symbols and symbol system, and it is produced by integrating the physical attribute and spiritual attribute in a special way. The concept of symbol is closely related to human life and natural environment, and it derives from human visual experience. The understanding and recognition of graphic symbols vary from person to person due to their differences in association or feeling, so designers should use different visual symbolic languages to express their design thoughts in consideration of different service objects. The perceived may be memorized or forgotten, which should be considered by the designers, and man will selectively forget some things with the time after a sensual experience
