don’t get me started on Eames Chair “replicas”

Yeah - let the people that died 30+ / 40+ years ago profit from something they designed 70 years ago.

The bottom line is, if you buy the knockoff it’ll just be a bit shit. If you like the design just save up a bit longer and buy the original, avoid the nagging feeling you’ve got a second rate copy and the guilt of pretending intellectual property has no value.

intellectual property has no value

It absolutely does. It should be rewarded, and protected.

But maybe not until the heat death of the known universe.

Anyway - I thought designers subsisted on exposure alone?
