Anthony Wilder

What Anthony Wilder does

Anthony Wilder is a privately held, founder-owned design-build firm founded by Anthony and Elizabeth Wilder around 1994 and headquartered in a reimagined 1930s volunteer firehouse in Cabin John, Maryland. The firm delivers custom residential architecture, construction, and interior design services to high-net-worth homeowners across Maryland, Washington D.C., and Virginia, and operates through three interconnected offerings: a core Design-Build division that manages projects from foundation to finish, a WilderWorks division for streamlined renovations that do not alter a home's original footprint, and an Interiors by Anthony Wilder boutique studio for interior design work.

The firm's core operational technology is an integrated design-build methodology that brings architects, interior designers, project managers, and master builders into a single studio team, with credentials validated through AIA, ASID, NKBA, NARI, and LEED affiliations. Revenue is generated through project-based fees on custom homes and renovations, with no disclosed recurring or subscription component and no publicly disclosed pricing.

The go-to-market motion is sales-led and consultative, with direct engagement through website contact forms, phone, and email, supplemented by a Houzz Pro presence, Instagram and Facebook channels, and earned media via extensive industry awards and features in publications including House Beautiful, Southern Living, The Washington Post, and Mansion Global. The company is bootstrapped, employs more than 50 professionals, and has no disclosed external investors, parent company, or acquisition activity.
