Concise European Design Law builds on the two editions of the design-related portions of the much-relied-upon Concise European Trade Mark and Design Law. The two EU instruments that govern design law – the Community Design Regulation (CDR) of 2001 and the Design Directive of 1998 – are expertly annotated by distinguished practitioners from a range of European countries in this thorough article-by-article commentary. It is the best first-stop guide to practice in the field.

How this will help you:
This succinct book on designs is a handy desktop companion and single reference tool for daily use by every practitioner in the EU and elsewhere who practises design law. It will be appreciated by IP lawyers, in-house counsel, and government officials involved with design policy and procedure.
