The 2017 HC&G IDA Winners: Bathroom Design

For a bath located in a Sagaponack residence, designer Tamara Magel combined sleek stone surfaces, a dark vanity with oversize hardware, and natural wood accents. “I love this bathroom so much—it’s fresh and bold, yet simple and serene,” gushes judge Jesse Carrier. “The stone mixed with the black steel-framed shower door and window is a strong, handsome look,” adds judge Brett Beldock.

The owners of this Sagaponack residence threw privacy out the window in favor of a sun-saturated master bathroom with expansive windows that overlook a farm, a pond, and the ocean beyond. Even more, a shower opens directly onto a deck. “The phrase ‘a room with a view’ has never been more appropriate,” raves judge Kerry Delrose.

The master bath of this East Hampton cottage looks out onto a lush garden planted alongside the property line, which creates added privacy. Judge Mara Miller describes the vaulted ceiling and sleek white surfaces as “clean and streamlined, simple but striking.” Additionally, judge Matthew Patrick Smyth admires how the renovated space “successfully highlights its architecture and landscape.”
