About LEGO Homemaker Rooms
The LEGO Homemaker Furniture sets, primarily released in the 1970s, focus on buildable furniture and accessories for dollhouse-style play. Notable sets include 261 Bathroom, which features a bathtub, sink, and other bathroom accessories; 263 Living Room, with a couch, table, and television; 264 Kitchen, equipped with a stove, sink, and kitchen cabinets; and 265 Baby's Room, which includes a crib, rocking chair, and baby accessories. These sets allowed for detailed customization and imaginative play in creating household environments.
1972 LEGO Sets
In 1972, The LEGO Group officially expanded into the United States, marking a major milestone in the company's global growth. Following a licensing dispute with the Samsonite Corporation, LEGO USA was established in Brookfield, Connecticut. As a result, Samsonite ceased production of LEGO products in the U.S. but continued manufacturing and distributing LEGO sets in Canada until 1986. This transition allowed LEGO to take full control of its branding, marketing, and distribution in the American market.
