Born in 1959, Josef Jahn grew up in an era of social reform and economic revival. The trained builder increasingly occupied himself with old buildings and objects of cultural value. With his personal studies of old structures within the whole of Europe and much accumulated knowledge gained from literature, he developed a superior level of knowledge on all forms of vaults.

From this passion and the constant endeavour to supersede previously achieved architectural goals, he has virtually developed his own style of construction. Today, Josef Jahn builds with such zeitgeist that he is ahead of his time.
