The challenge

Saudi newspapers fill their National Day editions with stories of pride and progress. LEGO, which presents itself as building children's potential, wanted a place in that national conversation in its own material.

The idea

Havas Middle East teams in Dubai and Riyadh worked in real time to rebuild Al Madina's cover and the pictures for nine celebratory stories from the past year out of LEGO bricks, then photographed and designed the edition. It reached newsstands in Riyadh and Jeddah the same day and was shared by influencers.
