Designs

Kyowa’s patent attorneys, with their knowledge of patents and trademarks, have been actively engaged in the registration of design rights not only for traditional forms of goods but also in new areas such as graphical user interface (GUI) and building interiors. We also actively support the registration of design rights in combination with other intellectual property rights to give our clients’ creations even stronger protection.
