What LEGO set took your building to the next level?

For me as a kid, it wasnt actually a “set” but a Lego product...
6000 LEGOLAND Idea Book
Although the buildings are simple by LUG layout standards, I was mesmerized by
it, and the book opened me to other building worlds, like space and castle.
I never tired looking at it. I can still recall the day my mother bought it for
me, weirdly enough at a Beaver Lumber (Canadian Hardware/Lumber Store) in the
book section (that these days are reserved for “How to Build a Deck” type
books). I spent many days wishing I had enough Lego to build everything in there
all at once.
I still love that book today although I do regret using half the stickers out of
it as a child.
As for my adult life, some of the larger more involved technic sets have changed
my building abilities, or the way I approach building. Since I never had any
technic sets as a child, I missed out on that learning curve, and am slowly
building those skills, including both studded and studless.
