in the texts
The Law of Intellectual Property
A built dwelling used as a recurring illustrative example comparing property in a plan/idea to property in materials.
The plan after which a house is built, is as much wealth, as is the material of which the house is constructed.
The plan, after which a house is built, enters into the market value of the house.
between his right to a house that he has erected, and his right to an idea that he has produced.
Kitāb al-Safīnah al-Nūḥīyah fī al-sakīnah al-rūḥīyah
The house, used twice as an illustrative object: as a whole whose form belongs to no single part, and as a gilded house from heaven exemplifying unrealised possibility.
but not everything possible is actual — for it lies within possibility that a house of gilded ornament should come down from heaven, and that has not occurred.
and likewise the form of the house does not subsist in the roof alone nor in the wall;
Against Onetor II
The mortgaged house on which Onetor set up and later removed pillars recording a debt of two thousand drachmae.
It is plain, then, that Onetor having put up pillars on the house for two thousand drachmae, and on the land for a talent, intended to push his claim as though he had paid eighty minae.
To prove that these statements of mine are true, that he even now declares that the land is mortgaged for a talent, but that he laid claim to two thousand drachmae more on the house, and took the pillars down after the suit was decided, I shall bring forward witnesses who know the facts.
He removes the pillars from the house, and declares that the marriage-portion was a talent only, which sum was guaranteed by a mortgage on the land.
Hymn 20 To Hephaestus
Human-built dwellings associated with ease, peace, and year-round settled life after the acquisition of crafts.
But now that they have learned crafts through Hephaestus the famed worker, easily they live a peaceful life in their own houses the whole year round.
