As the saying goes:"Bread is the staff of life."Cooker culture has a long history like its food culture in China, and it is a very important and special part of the Chinese cultural tradition. Cooker has also been changed in phases because of the time changing.Engels put the emergence of agriculture as the"green revolution."The revolution had been announced to be completed at least eight or nine thousands years ago in China. The success of millet and rice the three major cereal being cultivated, as the sign of its outstanding, stabilized the thousands of economical foundation based on farming. Grains grew more, and of course people can not strip the burn the animals to eat as primitive any more, so special cooker to cook grains were produced, such as the tripod, Li, Tsang, devices with three feet. The first three devices were mostly ceramic products, which were nipped by hand with mud, slowly round polished, painted on the pattern, burnt in the kilns, then a wonderful cooker arose. In this way, we could put forward to eating cooked grains. Some three feet, such as"Zeng", which had insulating layers with holes, archaeological Ge had also been unearthed. After that a number of relatively simple pottery cooking utensils were invented, almost all used to barbecue meat. However, the fires were difficult to preserve whether artificial or making fire in prehistoric times. The campfire was put out very easily, gradually in the course of repeated practice, some people tried to repair a round, oval-shaped or other irregular-shaped fire facilities around the campfire–fire pool. According to archaeological data now, it perhaps should be the middle and late Neolithic period when people started to use fire pool widely after resettlement. With the invention of bronze smelting technology, tripod was found, then cooking pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep would be much more convenient. However, in generally, the opportunity to eat meat for civilians and slaves was always small, so that later,"Ding"was almost used by nobility. It was of course happy to cook large meat in Ding, cut into the square, put on a single low console table, servant standing, per cussing bells, accompanied by the rhythm of the music tasting of chewing, which was remarkable enjoyed at that time. This is the so-called"Zhong ming ding shi".The gradual formation of diet way in primitive society led to the development of cooking, and it is the beginning of the design that people transform the manner of using cooker as the purpose of"user-friendly".With the advancement of our society and continually improving of the living standard of people, the pursuit of perfect has become the fashion. The cooking products have not only meet the requirements of the basic functions, but also people pay more attention to the aesthetic appearance at the same time. While we improve and perfect the function of cooking products at constantly, there is more and more higher demand on the appearance at the same time. There are more and more varieties of cooking utensils today, such as soup pot, rice cooker, oven, sand series and so on. Cooker in our lives play an more and more important role in our life, the life of kitchen is increasingly becoming important to measure the quality of life standard. Now, cooker has entered beyond the purely functional, into the pursuit of high-grade stage, the scientific and technological content of products, the use of human and artistic appearance are more concerned by people. How can not cooker be perfect as the most important thing in the kitchen? Today, cooker has diverse cooking style, such as fashion sense and personalization, also change a lot of new features with the transformation of human life. Today, the design of cooker has become an independent system. Not only inherited the design of the Millennium civilization advantages, but also develop a new generation of cooking products in combination with modern science and technology, continuous developing towards multi-functional. Actually modern design gives us a new sense of enjoyment combining cooking way of life and the design of our modern ideas.However, there are a lot of inadequacies in the design of modern cooker, which brings forwards higher requirements for the future design of cooker. Development trend put forward four demands based on the environment which the future design of cooker will have to face to. a personalized design: personalized design of cooker is the design of new products on behalf of consumer personality difference . The future of human society is diverse humane society, people will break the fixed forms and criteria to realize the value of the individual. b humanization design: it is perfect combination between human person and product design, also is a reflection of the humanistic spirit. c high-intelligent design: convenient way of life is required more and more as to speed up the pace of life. Style of cooker is in addition to keeping up the pace of fashion, but also with a variety of well-designed equipment. d sustainable design: it is an important topic for contemporary designers to balance the relationship between the pursuit of better living conditions and the better protection of the environment in human activity of designing, which requires the designer to maintain a sober sense of crisis about environment during the design process.Social progressing, scientific and technological advancing, lifestyle changing, as well as social and moral standards and people's values changing, and so on, these objective factors will affect the design idea and concept of the cooker. As a designer, it is necessary to seize direction of the cooker utensils designing, link with activity of the innovative development and human civilization, connect to the aspirations and ideals of human, and attach to maintaining the natural balance and achieving total harmony between human and the nature while standing on"people-oriented"position with a higher viewpoint and a broader vision to look at the impact range and depth by the objective factors .
