Ed Lippmann and Peter Sarlos - Moral Rights for Architects

Hearing Architecture

In this episode of Hearing Architecture, Daniel Moore is speaking with registered architects Ed Lippmann, director of Lippmann Partnership, and Peter Sarlos of Sydney East Architects and special counsel at M&A Lawyers. Daniel, Ed and Peter discuss a case study regarding moral rights in architecture in which one of Ed Lippmann’s projects was involved. Moral Rights provisions in Australia’s Copyright Act expressly recognise and protect the rights of authorship, including the right of attribution, the right against false attribution, and the right of integrity. Ed and Peter take us through the case study where another architect was engaged to undertake work that impacted one of Ed’s projects and how he and the other architect addressed his moral rights as the works were undertaken.
