The study and creative application of typographic ligatures or Unicode characters, where multiple letterforms are combined or abstracted into a single cohesive glyph, word or phrase. LPT goes beyond traditional ligatures used for enhancing readability, focusing instead on the creation of minimalistic, visually appealing representations that transcend the literal display of characters, evoking deeper meanings or associations. It incorporates principles of visual abstraction, semiotics, and gestalt perception, shaping how text is perceived, understood, and engaged with by readers.
Key Characteristics:
1. Visual Abstraction: Letterforms are manipulated to convey multiple meanings, representations, or concepts through the creative use of shapes and forms.
2. Typographic Ligatures: The combination of multiple characters into a single glyph, either for clarity, efficiency, or aesthetic appeal.
3. Semiotic Interpretation: LPT relies on the human ability to interpret shapes and visual cues that represent meanings beyond the literal phonetic values of the letters.
4. Contextual Typography: LPT is adapted to fit the context of specific design goals, such as logos, branding, or artistic works.
5. Gestalt Perception: The gestalt principle is used in LPT, where the relationships between individual letterforms create a unified and coherent visual experience.

Ligature Perception in Typography is particularly impactful in fields like branding, logo design, and artistic typography, where it is used to condense meaning, enhance visual identity, and communicate messages in an efficient, dynamic, and creative manner.

It is a mixture of perceive and acceptance The exact definition is: The ability of an honest and open mind to accept that higher thought which it perceives even though it goes against all traditional thought.
