Elevating a Luxury Brand Online

As the first North American destination in The Bicester Collection, Belmont Park Village required a digital experience that embodied the sophistication of one of the world’s leading luxury retail brands. The challenge was to translate the Village’s elevated in-person experience into a digital platform that could seamlessly guide visitors through a rich ecosystem of designer boutiques, dining, amenities, and services while maintaining the refined standards of the global collection.

Partnering closely with the Belmont Park Village team, we designed and developed a digital experience that balances clarity with elegance. A considered information architecture, intuitive user journeys, refined typography, and understated visual design create a seamless experience across every touchpoint. Fully responsive and accessible, the platform reinforces the Village’s premium positioning while making it effortless for visitors to explore, plan, and engage with the destination before they arrive.

Guiding Visitors Seamlessly to Their Visit

With multiple access points – train, parking, shuttles, and proximity to UBS Arena – the biggest challenge was simplifying wayfinding. The redesigned site provides clear, user-friendly arrival information, interactive maps, and streamlined transportation guidance, reducing friction and helping guests plan their visit with confidence.

Clarifying a Complex Destination

Belmont Park Village offers shopping, dining, events, and world-class guest services – but communicating all of that clearly was a challenge. Through thoughtful UX architecture and intentional content hierarchy, the website distills a multi-layered destination into a clear, intuitive experience that helps visitors quickly understand what the Village offers.

Eliminating the Friction of Timesheets

For decades, timesheets have been a necessary but frustrating part of agency life—manual, inconsistent, and often inaccurate.

Manifest reimagines this process entirely. Instead of requiring employees to start timers or complete entries at the end of the week, the platform automatically captures activity in the background as work happens.

The redesigned interface centers on transparency and simplicity. Work is automatically organized by client, project, and phase, ensuring teams always have structured, accurate data without administrative overhead.

The result is a system that eliminates the friction of time reporting while giving agencies a far more accurate picture of how work actually unfolds.

Designing a Product-First Interface

The interface needed to do more than present data—it needed to make complex operational systems immediately understandable.

RPPL approached the redesign with a product-first mindset, focusing on clarity, hierarchy, and purposeful interaction patterns. Key insights such as time allocation, project health, and cost visibility are surfaced through structured dashboards and modular data components.

Every aspect of the experience was refined to support quick comprehension and confident decision-making. Simplified navigation, thoughtful visual hierarchy, and clear data visualization allow users to move from activity to insight in seconds.

The result is a platform that feels powerful without feeling complicated—balancing depth of capability with ease of use.

A Platform Built for Scale

As Manifest grows, the product must support expanding teams, new integrations, and increasingly complex operational data.

To support this evolution, RPPL developed a scalable design system that establishes a cohesive visual and interaction language across the platform. From typography and color to data visualization and component architecture, the system ensures consistency while enabling rapid product growth.

Modular UI components allow new features to be introduced without disrupting the overall experience, creating a foundation that can evolve alongside the platform.

By building a strong design framework, Manifest is positioned to scale with the changing needs of modern agencies—supporting a future where AI-powered insights become central to how creative organizations operate.

Designed for Efficiency

The impact of the platform is felt across every level of the agency.

By eliminating manual timesheets, employees regain valuable time in their week—saving an average of two hours previously spent tracking and reporting activity. Managers benefit from automated reporting and real-time visibility, reducing administrative overhead by up to four hours each week.

What once required constant oversight and manual effort becomes an effortless, always-on system for understanding how work happens.

Manifest ultimately gives agencies something they have rarely had before: a clear view of the true cost, value, and productivity behind the work they deliver.
