The architects initiated a creative partnership with Jirka V\u00e1vra and Katka Jiroutov\u00e1, the dynamic next-generation leaders who took over the management of the successful family business. VAVI was originally founded by V\u011bra V\u00e1vrov\u00e1 alongside her husband, following years of valuable experience gained at the historic \u0160umavan factory located right there in Vimperk.
