520 _aDiscusses the case of "George Jones v The Mayor & Burgesses of the Tower Hamlets LBC". In this an architect, Jones, believing that Tower Hamlets had copied his design and scheme for 80 new homes at Armagh Road, Bow, sued the latter for breach of copyright. He lost the case handsomely. Considers the implications of the ruling. The key implication is that you cannot copy an architect's artistic work, but he is not protected from others following ideas embodied in the work. An architect may legitimately inspect an original plan and then, having observed the architectural concept and style, apply these to his own original plan.
