“We need to take back the backyard!” Bill Katavolos Interviewed by Bruce Hannah

Bill Katavolos created organic architecture and water architecture and designed a few classic furniture pieces along the way. He created the “T” Chair with Littell & Kelley and The New York Sofa series. In this interview, Bill explores his beginnings in the early 1940s at The Ram’s Head Inn on Shelter Island, NY, listening to scientists discuss The Bomb while splashing paint onto Transite. Bill also talks about how his grandfather’s vegetable and fruit garden for his family in Garden City, Long Island, inspired him to think about how we might reclaim our backyards as gardens that feed our bodies and senses.
