In 1983, Brynildsen and Jensen, then architectural students, visited the missionaries Clara and Leif Lerberg, who were ministering to lepers. The Lerbergs had been given a site by the local authorities for a leper hospital about 13 km from Chopda. The architects were asked devise a site plan for the facility that would provide a safe haven, a treatment centre, and headquarters for a village-to-village nursing programme.
