This question was recently <a href=\"https:\/\/en.ilsole24ore.com\/art\/interior-design-work-may-be-protected-by-copyright-AJzdtcjB\">addressed by the Milan Court in an order dated 23 September 2026,<\/a> as reported by <em>Il Sole 24 Ore<\/em> on 20 October 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Copyright Protection of Private Apartments: Economic Rights and Commercial Reputation<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dispute concerned the owners of an apartment used for short-term rentals and commercial filming, and the producers of a music video shot on the premises. The property owners filed an application for interim relief, <strong>alleging infringement of their economic rights and damage to their commercial reputation<\/strong>, <strong>which is fundamental for the credibility of a business or the house owner<\/strong>. They sought an injunction prohibiting the publication on social media of videos and photographs taken inside the property, as well as the immediate removal of any content already posted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>What are economic rights of a copyright holder?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Economic rights enable rights holders to <strong>control the use of their works and other protected subject matter and to obtain financial compensation from such use<\/strong>. In other words, economic rights give the copyright holder the <strong>exclusive right<\/strong> to economically exploit their work in any form or manner. They generally include the right to authorise or prohibit the reproduction and distribution of copies, as well as the communication of works to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Copyright Protection of Private Interiors: Creativity, Unauthorised Filming and Online Publication<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The central issue concerned whether the interior design of a private residence could qualify for copyright protection under the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wipo.int\/wipolex\/en\/legislation\/details\/21564\">Italian Law No. 633 of 22 April 1941 on the Protection of Copyright and Neighboring Rights<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As established by the Court in this case, <strong>when an apartment\u2019s interior design meets the threshold of creativity required for copyright protection, filming it and uploading the results without authorisation may have legal consequences<\/strong>. As an interim measure, a court may prohibit further use of the footage and photographs and order their removal from social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Court\u2019s reasoning is consistent with the principle that <strong>copyright protection rests on the original expression of the author\u2019s intellectual creation<\/strong>. In this case, the Court identified the creative contribution not in the individual elements of the interior design, but in their <strong>original combination<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is precisely the distinctive combination of lighting, works of art, colour schemes and spatial arrangements that may constitute a sufficiently original expression to qualify for copyright protection, provided that it reflects the author&#8217;s individual creative style and embodies their own intellectual conception. The originality of the apartment&#8217;s interior design must, however, be demonstrated through<strong> specific and objectively verifiable evidence.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Beyond Functionality: Copyright Protection of the Creative Design of Private Spaces<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ultimately, this case highlights how copyright protection may extend beyond traditionally recognised artistic works to <strong>encompass the creative organisation of everyday spaces<\/strong>. It also raises an interesting question about the boundaries between functionality and artistic expression: an apartment is not merely a place to live or a backdrop for commercial productions, but may itself <strong>embody an original intellectual creation deserving legal protection<\/strong>. The decisive factor is therefore not what the space is, but <strong>the creativity expressed through its design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can a private apartment&#8216;s interior design qualify for copyright protection as a work of intellectual creation in Italy?
