Dare to Flair

Watch Our Brand Story

At JUST Creative, we take inspiration from the flamingo – a symbol of vibrant uniqueness.

“Stand The Flock Out” is our homage to the flamingo’s spirit, urging our clients to embrace their standout nature.

With every endeavor, we encourage them to “Dare to Flair”, much like a flamingo daring to display its brilliant plumage among the ordinary.

“Build Your Paradise” isn’t just our motto; it’s the destination we guide our clients towards.

This philosophy drives our mission to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary, ensuring every individual and business we partner with manifests a strategic brand that’s not only distinctive but aligned to their vision.

At JUST Creative, we’re not just building brands, we’re building paradises that defy the conventional, each project a mark of our commitment to branding excellence.

Your journey to paradise begins here.

Jacob Cass of JUST Creative is just that – incredibly creative! I tasked Jacob with creating a logo that was both warm and modern, not an easy combination. He hit the nail on the head with his designs and made the process simple and seamless. With his skills and natural creativity, he worked quickly and efficiently, presenting professional options and offering sound advice. He immediately understood what I wanted and translated it into an image and tagline that said what I couldn’t manage to say without him! Thank you!

Everything you have created for Ruff Club is absolutely gorgeous and we cannot thank you enough. You’ve gone the extra mile at every turn and the result is a brand and website that exceeds our wildest expectations. You provided the service and professionalism of a full-service agency even though you are a sole freelancer. We’d recommend Just Creative to anyone; you’re affordable enough for a startup and talented enough for a large company with deep pockets. Thanks Jacob, for listening to our needs and going above and beyond contract.

Jacob turned out to be the best choice in the world for the job of designing a logo for my musical. He understood every aspect of how the logo needed to feel and just nailed it. Jacob is an absolute pleasure to work with, a true professional, and he’s capable of producing results of the highest standard in a very short amount of time. I consider him a creative genius! Rest assured, Just Creative is one of the best choices out there for your
creative needs, period.

I cannot express how pleased we are with the level of professionalism and results – but also the service and intelligence to assist with making the best choices for the design of our logo. Jacob has truly exceeded all expectations and delivered a logo that is clean, eye-catching and above all a logo that captures all the elements we wished to portray (well before the agreed deadline I might add!). Jacob is an absolute pleasure to work with, and we Eton Financial look forward to developing our brand and cementing our reputation as the provider of choice for professional financial education services across South East Asia.
