Modularisation I think has to be the way forward, so that a small set can
function perfectly on its own, but when combined with a larger set provides
enhanced playability.  Designing sub-ranges that link together like the
examples you site (including the modular shops and offices, and modular
emergency buildings) would make collecting certain sub-themes more
interesting and desirable.  Here's the best example of a cool modularisation
building that I've thought of:

Hospital:

Operation Theatre:
This would be a set with figs in surgeons' greens and complete with funny
hats.  A variety of fighand-held tools would come with it as well as banks
of monitors.  This set would be quite small but would come in a room.

Ward:
A slightly larger set that would have three beds with associated
paraphenalia such as monitors, flowers in a vase, nurse station (nurse
minifigs?!).

GP's Surgery:
This would be two rooms; the GP's surgery and the receptionist's area.

When linked together, the GP's Surgery would form the main entrance and the
ward and operating theatre would come off it to provide a complete hospital
range.  Tie-ins with this product line would include an ambulance, a
paramedic on a motorbike and a ambulance-chopper.

As always, LMKWYT

Not bad, nicholas

My view on that is that you could combine a Dacta Hospital set (not too
sure of the set number) with a 6378? Emergency Treatment Center and
have yourself at least a 3 floor hospital with ER, OR, a couple of
recovery wards, a reception area, two ambulances and 1 doctor's car
