ᐅ Which interior wall material and thickness provide good sound insulation?

We are currently planning a two-story single-family house with our architect, with approximately 160m² (1,722 sq ft) of living space.
The exterior walls are planned to be made of 36.5cm (14.4 inches) Poroton bricks.

When children eventually reach the relevant age, sound insulation of the interior walls will definitely become very important. Which materials have particularly good properties for this purpose? And what thickness is ideally used for these materials?

It would probably be different in winter with a prefab house...

Why do you say that?

Because there is little or no material to store the heat.

Well, we have had no heating in our building project for two weeks now, and the temperature has remained steady at 19°C (66°F) despite the outside weather.

Because there is "no" or very little material that stores heat.

However, this usually results in significantly better insulation values, so temperature changes hardly occur overnight. After several days of heating failure in winter, the situation obviously changes, since – as you mentioned – less heat is stored inside the house.

We already noticed the impact of 2 days below freezing during the construction phase in winter. However, we also ventilated and had no internal moisture issues.
Currently, our bigger challenge is keeping the temperature below 22°C (72°F) – shading has already been necessary, and morning ventilation helps (excluding the last 3 days).
