TIL: "Der urheberrechtliche Schutz eines Gebäudes endet in Deutschland erst 70 Jahre nach dem Tod des oder der Architekt*in." https://blog.wikimedia.de/2024/11/01/keine-panoramafreiheit-fuer-luftaufnahmen-was-das-fuer-wikimedia-projekte-heisst/
in reply to Jan Wildeboer 😷:krulorange:

AFAICS the #copyright of the architect protects design documents, not the actual physical building. The designer has rights over the design, not over the physical object, as it is usually not owned by the designer. As I'm not a lawyer I do not know how panorama freedom interacts with copyright.
I would derubricate as yet another #crazy #archistar whim...

@datatrash please forgive the sheer coarseness of a grumpy #civilengineer, the natural enemy of every #archistar 😅
in my country the archistar power is confined by the sheer amout of norms and laws that tell you how you can or cannot paint the building. But they are usually written by #architects 😅 😜 @jwildeboer

@datatrash I just wish to return to more pristine times when the laws were few and simple.
