Kahn's Toy
Introduction
Louis Kahn
Louis Isadore Kahn (born Itze-Leib Schmuilowsky) (March 5 [O.S. February 20] 1901 – March 17, 1974) was an American architect,[2] based in Philadelphia. After working in various capacities for several firms in Philadelphia, he founded his own atelier in 1935. While continuing his private practice, he served as a design critic and professor of architecture at Yale School of Architecture from 1947 to 1957.

Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban
Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban or National Parliament House, (Bengali: জাতীয় সংসদ ভবন Jatiyô Sôngsôd Bhôbôn) is the house of the Parliament of Bangladesh, located at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar in the Bangladeshi capital of Dhaka. Designed by architect Louis Kahn, the complex, is one of the largest legislative complexes in the world, comprising 200 acres (800,000 m²)[1]The building was featured prominently in the 2003 film My Architect, detailing the career and familial legacy of its architect, Louis Kahn. Robert McCarter, author of Fardin I. Kahn, described the National Parliament of Bangladesh as one of the twentieth century's most significant buildings.[2]

Shape Matching
A Shape is the form of an object or its external boundary,
outline, or external surface, as opposed to other properties such as
color, texture, material composition. Typical shapes are Circles, Polygons, Curves etc. Shape Matching is an activity for all ages that involves 2 or 3 dimensional Geometry.

How to get all the blocks inside? |
Proposal
Using Louis Kahn's design of the Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban to create a Shape Matching toy. The exterior of the toy would resemble the building instead of a box and the interior would be hollow and hold blocks that match the distinguished perforations.

Rest on deck
Planck time
Theoretically, the planck time is the smallest measurement of time that will ever be possible, roughly 10−43 (Scientific_notation) seconds. (Planck_time)
Age of the universe
The age of the universe is the time elapsed since the Big Bang. The current measurement is roughly 13,8 x 109 years (Age_of_the_universe). Convertering years gives us 8,073313348 x 1060 planck time.
Number of possibilities from shuffling a 52 deck card
A 52 deck card can be arranged in 52! (Factorial) ways, roughly 8,06581751709 x 1067
Conclusion
If the universe was sorting the number of possible 52 card deck combinations at planck speed since the Big Bang, it would have completed 8,073313348 x 1060 combinations. It will take the universe roughly another 8,065816709 x 1067 planck time or 1,378718573 x 1017 years to finish all possible combinations. By that time the universe would be roughly 10 million times older than its present age.
