His first collection <em>Ja sisalikud vastasid<\/em> (\u2018And the Lizards Replied\u2019, 2003), which received the Literature Endowment Annual Award and the Debut Award of the Estonian National Culture Foundation, stands out with harmony between the content and the form where the used text fonts, photos and poems form a stylish whole. The poems are divided into three cycles and accompanied by translations and explanatory texts about their creation. K\u00fcnnap\u2019s poetry is playful, taking its subject matter mainly from the present-day world. The visual side is essential in his poetry, as it supports the text or plays along with it. <em>K\u00f5ige ilusam s\u00f5da<\/em> (\u2018The Most Beautiful War\u2019, 2005) which won the title of the most beautiful book together with Ja sisalikud vastasid maps K\u00fcnnap\u2019s big and small worlds; spatiality pervades both the design and texts. Delicate harmony between content and form is also offered by, e.g., <em>Su \u00f6\u00f6d on loetud<\/em> (\u2018Your Nights are Counted\u2019, 2008) and <em>Minu riik<\/em> (\u2018My State\u2019, 2021), which foregrounds the themes of dreams and darkness.
