    So if you build a hotel and generate profit, should you funnel that profit to the people who constructed the hotel?

    Well I'm not talking about creating an invention. I'm talking about building a product for someone else. If an architect creates a hotel for someone (no matter how insane or swaggy its design), they don't usually get the profits afterwards. They are paid for that construction job alone. That's more like what happened with this movie.

    Architecture is art too. Its not just for functional means. Even the paint strokes on a wall can be considered art (how meticulously its done) and something as simple as paint texture can make people continue choosing that hotel.

    According to that logic, if you sell anything second hand, you should give a cut of that to the original manufacturer of the product? Plus what you're saying applies to all art. According to this logic, there should be no contracts and one-off jobs if it involves art. Every freelance graphic designer who designed a logo for a company has to now permanently get a stream of profits for every company they made a logo for.
