The employer owns the design. I have no right or control over any design made under the direction of any of my previous employers. That means I can't use them, I can't re-use them, I can't sell them and I can't publically disclose them. The only reason I'm mentioning this is because it was pointed out to me that a lot of people don't know this. It is the same here in the UK. Work done while in the employment or under contract of another becomes their intellectual property - unless it is agreed otherwise. This can be true regardless or where or what time of day or night you carried out the work. If a company has you under contract to do a specific type of work for them, all work you do of that type may be their property. If when you get home you do, by some chance, still feel like designing, you may find that they own the rights to the work. Here's an audio compressor I started a few years ago and has been on the shelf awaiting refinement: When you get around to it, huh? Once you put something to one side, "awaiting refinement", it may be simpler just to bin it. You get too stuck into the next job to finish the old ones which you have lost interest in.
