Gruendl, Harald & EOOS (2008): The Cooked Kitchen. A Poetical Analysis. Springer: Wien, New York.

EOOS takes forty kitchen utensils and uses them to reconfigure the entire world of the kitchen. Away from the well-trodden paths of design theory and design history EOOS deploys Poetical Analysis to describe the creative process of design and usage of objects. This design philosophy seeks out intuitive ­images, rituals and myths serving as a point of ­ departure for the creative process. Ancient myths meet with today’s high tech.
