Outside of the urban centers, we find Louisiana Creole Provincial, more commonly known as Acadian architecture (since the mid 20th century). The appellation Acadian can be extremely misleading, as these were common to non-Acadian-ancestored Louisiana Creoles and cannot be found any place in the maritime provinces of Canada where Acadians are rooted.
The plantation variety is a bit more modest than the Caribbean Creole Plantations and come in not only plantation size, but also town cottages and cabins.
They typically are only painted white, warm color painted wood shutters, wood planks all around, some exposed brick on the chimney and are often built on stilts, high off of the ground, reflecting frequent floods.
