LEGO 1974 / Homemaker / Rooms Sets

LEGO Homemaker was a theme introduced in 1971 designed to appeal primarily to girls and centered on domestic and suburban life-based settings. The larger of the Homemaker sets could be assembled to build complete room settings of a house, including a kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedrooms while smaller sets could build models of other household fixtures. The sets are known for using Homemaker figures built using standard LEGO bricks.

1974 LEGO Sets

In 1974, LEGO released several new sets and themes, including the LEGO Universal Building Set, which included a range of new bricks in different shapes and colors. 1974 was also the year that LEGO introduced the LEGO Technic theme, which focused on building complex, mechanically-themed models such as cars, airplanes, and construction equipment. The Technic theme introduced new elements such as gears, levers, and motors, which allowed for more realistic, functional models. Other notable sets and themes released by LEGO in 1974 included the LEGO Space theme, which expanded upon the Space sets released in previous years, and the LEGO Trains theme, which introduced the first LEGO electric trains.
