The Croisset Student House is a good example of how to protect a building from the noise of a motorway and give at the same time a public image to the building.
The complex is made of 3 residential blocks, oriented perpendicularly to the motorway, and a continuous screen which runs between the blocks and the motorway. The screen is made by two 30 cm walls, separated by a 3 meters void, which contains the stairways and elevators.
Photos of this building can be found here, and a video can be found here.
