What is the legal definition of an Industrial Design in the Philippines?
An Industrial Design is defined as any composition of lines or colors or any three-dimensional form. Section 112 Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines specifies that these features may or may not be associated with lines or colors. The primary requirement is that the form or composition must give a special appearance to an industrial product or handicraft. Furthermore, it must be capable of serving as a pattern for such products. “SEC. 112. Definition of Terms. – 1. An Industrial Design is any composition of lines or colors or any three-dimensional form, whether or not associated with lines or colors: Provided, That such composition or form gives a special appearance to and can serve as pattern for an industrial product or handicraft.” January 3, 2026About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
