Design Registration vs Copyright: Which IP Protection Do You Need?

Copyright protects original artistic and literary works including logos, manuals, and software code upon creation (registration recommended). Design registration protects the ornamental or aesthetic appearance of articles under the Designs Act.

Which to choose

Consumer products often need design registration for shape and copyright for marketing assets. Enforce against copycats using the right cause of action.
