totaling 370 degrees of creative, explosive passion.

How to protect your design in the European Union
by OHIM (Office of Harmonization in the Internal Market)
Before the entry into force of the Regulation on Community designs in 2002, the Member States of the European Union had separate systems of design protection through national registrations, which meant a separate application in each country. The protection was limited to the territory of that country for durations that varied depending on the country. Designers had no guarantee that, across the European Union, their creations were granted the same degree of protection, that they were protected against the same actions and for the same durations. But today, the situation is different since the laws have been harmonised through the Designs Directive.
