Pi
The monoblock that integrates engineering, functionality, and beauty
The Pi monoblock is Silko’s response to the needs of the most demanding professional kitchens: a single integrated creation that combines design, efficiency and cutting-edge technical solutions.
Pi was created to interpret the value of knowing how to live well, expressing uncompromising beauty and the ambition to revolutionise the kitchen experience, transforming it into a place of balance between art, function and innovation.
Concept and design
From the encounter between tradition and vision comes Pi:
the beating heart of the kitchen, combining ergonomics, power, and beauty.
A project by V12 Design, for Silko.
The Birth of Pi
The inspiration comes from the world of the workshop, the atelier, and the grand convivial table — places where gesture takes center stage and every element serves a purpose.
From this vision emerges a block that is at once a workstation, a design element, and a distinctive symbol of the restaurant’s identity.
Silko Pi takes its name from Pi (π), the universal constant:
something unique, immutable, and precise — representing the power of perfection.
“Pi” is the initial of Pi (π), the mathematical symbol that resembles a double T — echoing the distinctive shape of the monoblock kitchen.
WHAT MAKES Pi UNIQUE
A solid frame made of 75% recycled anodized aluminum, featuring a reinforced internal structure that ensures rigidity, lightness, and excellent heat dissipation.
The worktop, made from a single piece of 30/10 AISI 304 stainless steel, ensures solidity, durability, and a professional look.
Its slight inner slope and central drain channel liquids toward an outlet designed to guarantee maximum hygiene and easy cleaning — combining efficiency and functionality.
Removable H2-type modules that can be cleaned effortlessly — everything returns to perfection, just like before.
The heating elements feature passive ventilation, evenly distributed across the various components of the block, ensuring optimal temperature maintenance in a natural way.
The worktop does not heat the surrounding environment, remains cool to the touch, and guarantees longer-lasting performance — providing the staff with superior operational comfort.
Design meets precision: haptic feedback.
Every chef’s gesture becomes instinctive, every parameter under control.
Technology that enhances human intuition.
Pi tells the story of the essence of materials: steel, brass, copper, and De Castelli finishes — to be experienced through sight and touch.
Each kitchen becomes a unique work of art thanks to full customization of textures and colors.
Harmonious lines, invisible joints, and smooth curves transform functionality into elegance, defining a timeless aesthetic and the art of Italian precision.
