Accretion/SubtractionAccretion/Subtraction

RUS101: Integrated StudioProduct Design

AccretionAccretion� is an increase in size of a design plate by

addition of material along a convergentboundary.

SubtractionSubtraction� The act of subtraction is the cutting out of

shapes and design

Cubeshape

Rectangularshapes

Circularshapes

� Before designing you must consider themost significant association in design:

� The Figure Ground

� What is the figure ground?

La DS byGabriel Orozco

In La DS - artistGabriel Orozcoremoves a 25-inch wide slicealong the centerof a Citroen DS.By renderingthis mass-produced carsleeklyobsolete, heforces itinto becomingan art object.

Skeleton Key CD by StefanSagmeister

A designed CD package forSkeleton Key's FantasticSpikes via Balloon recordis punched with a grid ofholes.The rare designrepresents the text andimages which conveysstrong reaction.

U.S. Air Force Stealth Bomber

The B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber is created for low observability becauseof the reduced infrared, acoustic, electromagnetic, visual, and radarsignatures.

Self-SustainingTable by Ralph Ball

The legs of thisSelf-SustainingTable is replacedwith four spray-bottles comprised ofa generic glasscleaner. Cleaning isactually a part of thetable which no onehave ever thoughtabout it before.

HEstory by Vladimir Chaica

Subtractionist Vladimir Chaica creates countless variations of a humanface drawn with only four short straight lines. He covers some of thelines with circles to expose the essential experience of each season.

Your design must contain a light bulb

Submission RequirementsSubmission RequirementsYour task is to design;

2 cubes side by side [one must have thesubtraction elements (A) and the otherside should be the accretionelements(B)]

Your design must be sustainable whichis the elements that have beeneliminated in the subtraction cube (A)should be included as a design in theaccretion cube (B).

The cubes should contain the light bulb

Must use white mounting board for thewhole design. Include a transparencyglued to the frame of cube (B).
