Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the outdoors in, while a soaking tub offers a bird's-eye view.

Room With a View

NKBA Awards • BATH—Second Place

Room With a View A sweeping backyard vista lent a special dimension to the master bath in a Bethesda home surrounded by woods. When the owners tapped Anthony Wilder Design/Build to renovate the house, the firm’s interior designer Shannon Kadwell was tasked with improving the outmoded second-floor bath. The goal was to capitalize on the tree-level views while creating a luxurious spa retreat.

The first step was to replace a row of waist-high windows with dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows. Kadwell centered a soaking tub and a glamorous chandelier by Moooi in front of the windows; mechanized shades provide privacy when needed.

A glass-enclosed shower clad in Crema Marfil marble boasts a bench and body sprays. Behind the custom vanity—topped with Crema Marfil marble—a textured-tile backsplash from Walker Zanger creates a focal point. The commode is tucked behind a frosted-glass door, and niches to either side of the floor-to-ceiling mirror hold display shelves and cabinetry. Floors of wood grain-like porcelain tile provide visual contrast.
