Copyright and Design Rights represent valuable and effective protection. Copyright subsists across the spectrum of creative activities and spans the economy and culture of a country. Design Rights give broader protection akin to patent protection to the styling of useful articles, since copying or substantial copying don't come to bear on the question of infringement; rather, an independent creation can violate a design registration.
