H3. Does the Style Looks More Expensive? the Effect of Visual Complexity on Luxury Perception of Art Infused Products

This is because complex arts tend to capture consumers’ attention and broaden their pupil size, which in return, is explained by arousal of that stimuli. Stimuli’s artistic level is found to moderate the mechanism.
