I have never heard of anything like this before - Qatar are accused of copying street lighting design for Barcelona. An article with details is available here: http://www.dezeen.com/2012/07/27/qatar-accused-of-ripping-off/#more-231240 |

Quote: So Ashgal, the Quatar public company, commissioned Santa and Cole for a lighting project for the street in question... they chose the design which S&C adapted for main road lighting - and then Ashgal go to a different local company to make the lantern designed by S&C... seems like a pretty clear cut case of copyright infringement there. Also goes to show what some governments think they can get away with, just because they are a government. |
