Building Set with People ran from 1974 to 1980 with a majority of the sets released around 1977 and was a subtheme of the Homemaker brand designed to appeal primarily to girls. Most of the sets contained Homemaker Figures, also known as Maxi-Figs or Maxifigures, and the sets were about building items such as vehicles and room settings like a hospital, school classroom, a beauty salon or nursery for the figures and centered on domestic and suburban life-based settings. Building Set with People sets are typically vintage LEGO and such are very hard to come by in new and sealed packages.

1974 saw the Universal Building Set broaden parts variety and color, while large ‘Family’ (maxi) figures and the Homemaker line brought interiors and furniture to the forefront. Early mechanical elements began laying groundwork for later Expert Builder/Technic. Trains continued to evolve on 12V in Europe, refining the system ahead of the 1980s expansion.
