Carol Friedland, Kleinpeter, Shelly

LaHouse is a display of high-performance building practices to create more sustainable, resilient and healthy homes in the gulf region. The research-based facility is located on LSU's Baton Rouge campus and displays home-building techniques and solutions for Louisiana's unique climate. LaHouse is open weekdays from 10 am to 4:30 p.m. for self-guided tours or can be toured completely virtually.

Recycled fiber carpet

Experience the Lahouse via virtual tour

Traditional carpets are produced using petroleum-based chemicals that give off harmful odors and can cause serious health issues. Recycled carpet does not use these same chemicals.

Cosmetic inward swing half doors

The exterior doors are purely cosmetic to cover the steel pocket door. Having them swing inwards ensures the threshold of the closet is large enough to fit a wheelchair through.

High CRI fluorescent lighting

CRI tells you how true a paint color will appear based on the bulb’s light.

The color rendering index or CRI measures a light source’s ability to show an object’s “true” color compared to a standard incandescent light. The CRI is scaled from 0 to 100; the higher the rating, the better a light source can render accurate color.
