A New Web site for The Market Place
|
 The Market Place, usually in the business of giving other companies a face-lift, decided to turn the tables on itself by creating a brand new look. The newly designed Web site has three major sections including interactive areas in Print, Web and Video where clients and potential clients can view samples of work. In addition, the TMP staff unveiled three 2-minute videos describing some of their funniest moments, company history and most importantly, why they love what they do.
