Who it helps
Businesses where visual form carries value.
Industrial design advice may help product companies, technology businesses, creative businesses, founders and international clients that need to protect or license product appearance.
Design questions can overlap with copyright, trademarks, contracts and unfair competition concerns, so the firm considers the wider commercial setting.
Approach
Protection should match how the design is used.
The firm considers whether the design is new, who owns it, where protection may be needed and how it fits into product launch, licensing or enforcement planning.
Can design protection cover product appearance?
Design protection may cover visual features of a product, depending on the facts and the applicable rules.
Can EU design protection be relevant?
Yes. EU design routes may be relevant where the product or market has EU exposure.
Can design work connect with contracts?
Yes. Ownership and licensing often need to be reflected in contractor, supplier, distribution or product development contracts.
