Mandarine24 launches their new website

mandarine24.com Mandarine 24 announced today the launch of it’s new website. The design and programming was taken on by exo7, a Montreal based firm specialized in multimedia development and over the edge designs. The choice was obvious for Mandarine 24: “We wanted somebody who could represent our artistic aspirations” says Olivier Laberge, creative director at M24. “The Mandarine 24 and exo7 universes are not far appart. From the start, both companies had mutual respect and confidence, and we hope that the new site represents the desire to have fun while working, which is shared by both our teams. It was a real joy to work on this project” adds Maya Rioux of exo7. We invite you all to visit our new website at: http://www.mandarine24.com
