Abstract
This chapter presents a study of the perceptual processes that condition the parallel processing of visual data, and thus could become a design tool to manage the transfer of information. This allows the designers to analyze and consciously plan this process, taking into the account the perceptual mechanisms involved. The chapter combines knowledge from the fields of cognitive science, geometrical optics, graphic design, and, last but not least, it utilizes the author's experience in architecture gained from the study of transparency perception.
