Description

Furniture instead of figures

The Homemaker line focused on interiors and furnishings, and the salon is a typical example. Instead of people, its 229 pieces go into mirrors, chairs and shelves, the details that make a salon recognisable. That makes it a good pick for builders who like small, careful work. It also shows that bricks can do more than facades and vehicles: they can model a slice of everyday indoor life, down to the place where customers sit and wait.

A bright palette

White, yellow, red and blue are the four main colours. White gives the room a clean, light look, while the stronger colours pick out furniture and accents. With 57 unique pieces the range is fairly broad for a set this size, because furnishings need lots of small special shapes. The parts list on this page names each element separately, which is handy when you are sorting an older collection or hunting for a single missing piece.

Playing without minifigures

Since no minifigures are included, the salon starts out empty. If you want it open for business, add your own figures to play customers and hairdresser. That leaves you free to place the salon inside an existing town layout or to show it on its own as a room scene. The furniture is made of simple bricks, so you can change the mirror wall, the waiting area and the counters, and design a shop with a different layout.

Parts list and ideas

To check that your copy is complete, use the full parts list with colours. If you already own the bricks, the “What can I build?” tool shows which other models they could make. Sets with many small special pieces often supply details that turn out useful later, on houses, vehicles or the furnishings of other builds. In that sense the 1978 salon is still a handy stock of parts today.
