Yuuto – living and sleeping with a 360° perspective.
Good design always starts off as a good idea. And that was the case with Yuuto. This upholstered bed showcases the place you sleep. Standing freely in a room, it accommodates modern life: open for a whole range of possible connections – to our wardrobes, the bathroom, the panorama, flexible for the rituals of our private life.
An upholstered bed. Spaciously designed with fine materials. Sensuousness and sheer beauty. But this bed is more: Yuuto shapes the room. The upholstered bench naturally takes up residence beside the bed. As a valet stand or flexible seating arrangement. An attractive addition – the escritoire with its surface made of premium saddle leather. Just made for a pen and paper and that precious moment at which your thoughts flow. Complementing this arrangement, the side table – the perfect spot for your book and jewellery during the night. Personal treasures can be kept secure in the swivel-out drawer – useful and elegant.
The masterly showcasing reveals the great art of Yuuto. Inspirations en détail for wide sleeping landscapes. Relaxed elegance – as serene as it is stylish. With the culture of the natural.
“We love the strange, the paradox and the spontaneous.”
EOOS develops its talents as a team. The Austrian designers Martin Bergmann, Gernot Bohmann and Harald Gründl actually recognised the special synergy of their talents during their studies at the College of Applied Art in Vienna where they all attended Paolo Piva's design master class. In 1995, they founded a studio together and since then have constantly developed their own special methodology.
They refer to their road to creativity as poetical analysis. The designers search for the sense and function of design through the culture of human rituals. And that's how they create new concepts in product and retail design for clients such as Bulthaup, Duravit, Zumtobel, Armani Cosmetics and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
In their inspiring office in Vienna city centre, the three intransigent thinkers implement their ideas – for projects all over the world from Milan to Toronto, London to New York, Berlin to Herrenberg. Herrenberg is where the three started their career in 1997 with their fascination for the history of Walter Knoll. The spirit of the founders is more up-to-date today than ever before: designers of life's events.
To date, the team has been awarded more than 130 design prizes including the Compasso d’Oro. Special recognition: the MAK, the Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna, mounted an individual exhibition on EOOS in 2015 which provided insight into the designers' work process and showcased their extensive and eclectic work.

Walter Knoll clearly professes to sustainable economic activity. Thinking ecologically, acting responsibly and sustainably – a philosophy they live and breathe in the company and always have. One important aspect is enduring design quality. Durability applies not only to the appearance but also to the material.
Minimalist and timeless design is sustainable design. Because the use of natural materials, the minimal use of resources and aesthetic durability are characteristic of our design and architecture. This is how durability becomes ecology – even at the early stage of the draft. With their permanent, tested quality, our products are quite genuinely companions for life – not just for years but for decades.
