Located on a busy street, the issue of acoustic treatment to reduce external noise was one of the biggest challenges. One of the solutions found was to create an internal courtyard to help dissipate the sound, a space that ended up becoming the heart of the house. Sunshades were installed on the main façade, facing the street, which help reduce noise while allowing natural light to enter. The materials chosen, such as travertine, fiberglass sunshades, white aluminum frames and elements in corten and freijó steel, give the residence a modern and elegant touch.
