Sean Wilkinson
Co-Principal, Creative Director
Might & Main

PORTLAND, USA // As founding co-principal and creative director of Might & Main, Sean has overseen the creative work of this boutique brand design studio since 2010. Might & Main has created visual identities for over 60 restaurants and hotels, and launched creative campaigns for heritage brands like L.L.Bean, Stonyfield Farms, and Beam Suntory.

The studio has been recognized by HOW Design, Communication Arts, Art of the Menu, and For Print Only for their work, especially in the hospitality industry, and was recently the focus of an AdWeek piece titled, “How a Design Agency Helped Make Portland, Maine the Hippest Foodie Town in New England.”

Sean has always held up iconic typography and its connection to the written and perceived word as core tenets of what makes for great design. Might & Main’s mission is to find an entity’s voice and make it tangible — to create something that truly exists in the world, that we want in our lives, and want to build a relationship with.

He lives in Portland, Maine, and has held board positions with the Portland Museum of Art Contemporaries and Maine Writers & Publishers, and is a past President of the Maine chapter of AIGA, the Professional Association for Design.
