Unpolished, unfinished wood planks, glass wool (use as last resort), or nylon fiber are three alternatives which can be used to seal gaps. Thickness of floors, walls also matters for sound to radiate through. Cheapest alternative is of course paper as the best sound absorbent paper. Unlaminated newsprint is the best.

There is a lot of concerns when you're constructing a new floor and want to merge with the existing building. Please consult with your local architect for a contemporary look. Few things that needs to be incorporated : 1. Replace the overhangs with a contemporary shade structure. 2. Replace the traditional designs on balcony with SS and glass. Repeat on the new balconies 3. Incorporate ACP/ fibre cement panels throughout the facade. 4. Wooden paint / slats on the balcony roof 5. GFRC jaali on boundary wall alongwith stone cladding. 6. Painting the whole structure with a neutral tone or contrast as per preference. Regards, Aurum Ideas and Spaces Bhubaneswar
