The project will be judged against up to 25 other worldwide projects. If selected, it will become an official LEGO set, available in stores all over the world, says a press release issued on August 11.

Juditha built models of the Bangladesh National Assembly Building (Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban) out of LEGO bricks. One was a huge 8,000-piece version, and one was a small tabletop version of about 125 pieces. The tabletop version is the one in competition.
Juditha is an American but she is married to a Bangladesh and has lived in Dhaka for over 16 years.
