MKN Design, led by Michael Nykamp, is an independent (or freelance) creative leader specializing in crafting brand experiences for leading organizations. I help brands blend strategy, artfulness, and purpose into visual solutions that delight and engage.I nurture close, collaborative partnerships. Instead of working for you, I work with you—and value transparency from the beginning to the end of the process. Driven by equal parts thoughtfulness, acumen, and craft. Our work lives at the intersection of illustration and design, where shapes, colors, and form collide with strategically rooted solutions. Our style is uncomplicated by intention, which mimics the nature of our client relationships. Open. Honest. Free of clutter. In a world where things can get pretty complicated, we consider it a refreshing approach. If you value expertly crafted design, made possible by deep experience and a true partnership, let's talk. e: michael@mkn-design.cmp: 1 616 915 1941
