Industrial Design consists of creating the forms, configurations or compositions of shapes, lines, schemes, structures, colors, textures or materials that contain aesthetic value. Industrial Design can be a two or three dimensional pattern used to produce products, industrial commodities, or handicrafts.
Industrial design rights prevent irresponsible parties from making, selling, or importing articles bearing or embodying a design that is a copy or substantially a copy of the protected design.
Industrial design law in Indonesia protects the owner of a registered industrial design from third parties who aim to make, sell, or import articles bearing or embodying a design that is a copy, or substantially a copy, of the protected design when such acts are undertaken for commercial purposes.
In most countries, an industrial design must be registered to be protected under industrial design law as a ‘registered design’, and others as ‘design patents’. Some countries grant time-and scope-limited protection to so-called ‘unregistered industrial designs’.
Based on the particular national law and the kind of design, industrial designs may also be protected as works of art under copyright law.
