Valcucine at Milan Design Week 2025 presents the smart kitchen
With V-Motion 2.0, Valcucine, in collaboration with Nice, reinvents the smart kitchen
In the context of Connected Scenarios, where design, technology and human interaction converge, Valcucine presents an innovation that redefines the kitchen experience, marking a new milestone in ergonomic research, of which it is a pioneer. Thanks to the collaboration with Nice – a leader in Home Management Solution – Logica Celata and Air Logica evolve with V-Motion 2.0, a new technology that transforms the kitchen into an even smarter and more connected space. An ecosystem where openings and closures, lighting and materials harmonize to offer a fluid and natural interaction with the home environment.
V-Motion 2.0 represents a radical evolution from the previous system: unlike the previous version, which was based solely on gesture recognition, V-Motion 2.0 offers four interaction modes, expanding usage possibilities and adapting to different needs. Additionally, this implementation allows the door to be made in a wide range of materials beyond glass, including Tech Ceramic, MDi, precious metal and stainless-steel metal, offering new aesthetic and design possibilities.
The integration of Nice technology into Valcucine arises from a Group synergy: both companies are part of BeNice Holding, an organization that promotes innovation and technological development to improve quality of life in living spaces. The convergence of design, ergonomics, and smart technology reflects a shared philosophy: creating environments that combine beauty, functionality and well-being, with a focus on sustainability and energy consumption optimization, giving life to true “Connected Scenarios.”
V-Motion 2.0: all the details
The advanced V-Motion 2.0 system enriches Logica Celata and Air Logica, Special Elements of Valcucine that have already revolutionized kitchen design with their ability to conceal and reveal a highly functional workspace. The kitchen experience becomes even smoother, more customizable and more connected.
Four ways to interact with the kitchen
Thanks to Nice technology, Logica Celata and Air Logica can now be controlled in four modes:
SmartLift: with a light upward touch, the door opens smoothly, regardless of its length (up to 3,6 meters). Automatically, the backsplash light turns on and the faucet rotates. To close, just a downward touch and the movement completes gently and silently.
Remote Control: a simple click allows you to control the door's opening and closing and lighting.
Yubii Home App: remotely, the app allows you to open and close the door, control lighting and create personalized scenarios for each moment of the day, making the culinary experience more efficient and enjoyable. The Yubii Home app is pre-configured for kitchen use but can be extended to the entire home automation system, integrating with compatible devices and opening up a world of possibilities.
Voice Assistant: thanks to compatibility with Alexa and Google Assistant, you can control the kitchen with simple voice commands, allowing you to open and close the door, adjust lighting and customize the environment according to your needs, for a more intuitive experience.
Unlimited materials
With V-Motion 2.0 technology, the door of Air Logica and Logica Celata can now be made from a wider range of materials, expanding design possibilities. In addition to glass, Valcucine's distinctive material, you can now choose from Tech Ceramic, MDi, precious metal and stainless-steel metal, for an even more personalized interpretation of the kitchen space.
Advanced safety
The existing protection system has been further enhanced to ensure even more safety in daily use. In case of an obstacle during closure, the door no longer gets stuck but reverses the movement and automatically rises, making the use even more practical and safe.
Light and well-being
The backsplash lighting is designed to amplify space and create an overwhelming atmosphere, offering a range of customizable colors to choose the most suitable light for your needs, depending on your mood, the natural light available, or the atmosphere you want to create at that moment.
In addition to various gradations of white light, which can range from warm to cool, you can select shades inspired by the elements of nature – fire, earth, water, air – or set a circadian cycle that replicates the natural rhythm of daylight, promoting psychological and physical well-being. The effect is surprisingly realistic: from the morning blue, which stimulates awakening, to the midday white, to the warm tones of sunset, which guide the body in its natural biological rhythm.
An exclusive integration
V-Motion 2.0 is an exclusive system by Valcucine, developed in synergy with Nice to offer a superior level of comfort and innovation. It is not compatible with other automation systems: those who choose Logica Celata or Air Logica without V-Motion 2.0 will have a manual version, still characterized by the quality and attention to detail that distinguish Valcucine.
