Nice Design Example, the eco-cook

Basically I just think this is cool. I could try and explain how it shows creativity and reducing waste… but really I just like it. From the designer:

My eco-cook is an object that helps to save water, energy and time. Everyday, everyone, has to cook pasta, rice or various vegetable. Therefore different pots are needed. In a unique pot, the eco-cook enables to divide 2 or 3 space and to boil different food at the same time. Thereby, water and gas or electricity is saved. Moreover when food is taken out the eco-cook, it will automatically drain out, allowing to win precious time. In 2015 I also believe that most people will always be in a hurry. The eco-cook design permits to help 2015 people that pay close attention to energy and time.

The website should link to more designers homepage… It really is time for the linking ability of the web to be used more consistently. Far too often people discuss some person, book, center, term, report… and don’t take advantage of links to add value to the content presented (I don’t know if the designer, kechenyi camille, even has a web site but the failure to provide useful links is a very common waste) so that advice stands whether it is useful in this case or not.
