Ymere is renovating a block of flats on the Hoofddorpweg in Amsterdam: the house will be redesigned and provided with thermal insulation and sound insulation. Part of the house must be protected against noise from the busy Hoofddorpweg.CDC advised villanova architects on the renovation in collaboration with Tauw, who investigated the noise barrier of the façade. The integration of natural ventilation, thermal insulation, moisture regulation and sound insulation played a major role in this. A special aspect here, as is usually the case with wooden floors, is the adequate design of the wooden beams in facades in the long term.
