It may not always be a process; the designer may just know something that works.

Faber Music may have needed some research to put the music symbol and name together or it may have just been something the designer already knew so could just put together. There would still needed to be a thought process for the font used and layout with the text.

I need to show some ideas of where my design comes from.
