Baton Rouge Residential Remodeling: New Kitchen and Bathroom Trends

Angela Poirrier

July 14, 2020
As needs change, technology advances, and design trends develop, so do the layouts and amenities for updated and upgraded kitchens and bathrooms. These two spaces are the two most commonly renovated parts of a home. The ability to incorporate comfort, convenience, fashion, and function with a renovation changes constantly. Even as 2020 has had its trends in design, there is always something new to look forward to. Here are a few things you may want or can expect if you foresee a new kitchen or bath in your future.

Touchless Technology

Hands-free fixtures are not only easier to use and require less maintenance and cleaning, they offer a healthier overall environment. Reducing contact on surfaces can mitigate the risk of spreading germs and illness. It is also more environmentally friendly, as touchless faucets will stop running when not in use. 

Extra Space in Kitchens and Bathrooms

After experiencing a shift in our daily routines, many people are spending much more time at home. This will likely continue to be the case going forward. As we spend more time in our homes, this creates a great opportunity to make them more comfortable. Your kitchen has always been the centerpiece of your home, and considering a renovation to expand its footprint can offer even more livability and space. Additional counter space, new seating areas, and enhanced lighting are only of few of the potential options. As for your bathroom, this space can be designed as a place to escape, building your own, personal spa with luxurious countertops, and elegant tub and oversized shower.

Emphasis on Dining Areas

With the increased access of curbside takeout and delivery, we’re all spending more time in our dining rooms. Over this time, you may have noticed that your dining space could use an upgrade. Outdoor kitchens and open kitchen floor plans can incorporate an expanded dining area with more lighting, seating, organization, and overall space for you to enjoy and entertain.


If an updated bathroom or kitchen is on your to-do list, it all begins with the right designers and contractors. For over 40 years, the expert staff at Acadian House Design + Renovation have been helping Baton Rouge area homeowners create the space of their dreams.
