Logo Design Process for Just Creative Design’s Award Winning Log. Posted on 24'08 Apr Posted on April 24, 2008 along with 169 JUST™ Creative Comments In this article I will talk about how I came to the name for my freelancing business ‘Just Creative Design’ and also the logo design process that I used to design the award winning logo that you see above.
