Koningslaan 32 Residential Renovation

Project Overview

Isolgomma products played a key role in the sophisticated renovation of Koningslaan 32, an elegant historic villa overlooking Amsterdam's beloved Vondelpark. The project aimed to restore the property's grandeur while creating four luxurious 400-500 sqm apartments spread across two levels. Isolgomma’s expertise ensured acoustic comfort remained a priority amidst the transformation.

Challenge

The renovation presented a unique acoustic challenge. The existing wooden floors, while maintaining their historic charm, posed limitations in sound insulation due to their variability in structure and lower mass. This could potentially disrupt the tranquillity desired in these luxury apartments.

Solution

Through collaboration with an acoustic project consultant, with the manufacturer they devised a bespoke solution to achieve optimal sound insulation. This combined approach incorporated:

• Plasterboard Ceilings with Fibrous Insulation: This installation effectively reduced airborne noise transmission within the apartments.
• Upgrei Underlayment: Installed beneath the screed flooring, Upgrei provided superior impact sound insulation, addressing the specific concerns related to the existing wooden floors.

Result

The combined solution successfully addressed both airborne and impact noise concerns. The adaptability of the chosen methods ensured compatibility with the historic structure's variability, preserving the building's heritage while achieving the desired level of acoustic comfort for the future residents.
