Project
Estoril Sol Residence, completed in August 2010, is still currently one of the most controversial construction in Portugal, not only from its location but also due Gonçalo Byrne’s bold architecture, and being to date the first and only building completely certified by LNEC. The entire façade was classified by LNEC on technical and acoustic terms, thus exceeding legal requirements.
