True Media Case Study
Client background
In a former life, the True Media building in Columbia, MO used to be a well-known bank. It is an elegant two-story, flat-roof brick structure with a concave front wall of north facing windows. The tasteful redesign consists of an open atrium with a balcony off the second floor. This 1970s era building was converted to offices for the marketing firm True Media in the summer of 2012 and opened for business that fall.
True Media St. Louis, on the other hand, is a 5,066 square-foot building that houses another branch of the well-known marketing agency.
