Sean Sims is a Brighton-based illustrator celebrated for his vibrant, retro-inspired style, drawing heavily on mid-20th century design and children’s book illustration from the 1960s and 70s. His playful, colorful prints often feature whimsical characters, bold typography, and iconic local landmarks.
Sims is particularly known for “The Brighton Line”, a quirky reimagining of the London Underground map, adapted to Brighton’s geography and culture. It features tongue-in-cheek station names and playful references to local landmarks, nightlife, and community identity. This work highlights his ability to merge humor, design, and local pride into a single piece.
