In a concrete tower the neighbour you hear is usually the one above, walking. At Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami, here is how the building is meant to keep that sound where it starts.
This page is a framework. Whether the building suits you is a separate conversation. Contact the desk at Miami Dossier for the current position on any building we cover.
Voices and music travel through the air; walls and floors are rated for them by STC, the sound transmission class. Footsteps, dropped objects and chairs travel through the structure; floor and ceiling assemblies are rated for them by IIC, the impact insulation class. The Florida Building Code sets a minimum for each between residences, and some luxury towers state higher targets. Ask which figures Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami commits to, and whether they are tested on site or only calculated.
Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami: Private terraces; hurricane rated floor to ceiling windows; below grade valet and self parking; a 28 foot lobby with lounge; 24 hour concierge.
Read it against the Kempinski Residences Miami Design District dossier for the nearest comparison.
Stone, tile and wood carry impact sound into the slab. Declarations usually require an approved acoustic underlayment beneath any hard floor, and a few require a test once it is laid. Ask what the rule at Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami says, whether the developer’s own finished floors meet it, and whether an owner who renovates must submit the product and its rating to the association before work starts.
Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami: 143 residences of one to four bedrooms with private terraces, many with dens, in a 25 storey tower.
Some noise comes from the building itself: an elevator shaft beside a bedroom, a trash chute behind a wall, pumps, generators and cooling towers on the roof or the amenity deck. Read the floor plans at Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami for what sits on the far side of each bedroom wall, and ask where the mechanical rooms sit in relation to the lines under consideration.
Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami: More than 40,000 square feet indoor and outdoor; a 70 foot rooftop pool; about 15,300 square feet of resident only outdoor space plus a shared hotel terrace; men’s and women’s spas; two restaurants, a bar and a patisserie.
Laminated impact glass usually cuts traffic and boat noise better than ordinary glazing, and a window’s OITC rating measures that outdoor sound. Ask whether the acoustic targets for Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami appear in the construction drawings or only in the brochure, and whether an acoustic consultant reported on them. The desk asks the developer of Fouquet’s Hotel & Residences Miami for the acoustic specification in writing.
