### Luxury E-Commerce Website for a Global Skincare Brand

As Manuela Picard prepared to enter the highly competitive US beauty market, the brand required an e-commerce experience that matched the quality, elegance, and precision of its products. Our collaboration focused on translating Manuela Picard’s minimalist luxury identity into a seamless, mobile-first digital storefront that inspires confidence and drives high-value purchases. By combining refined visual design, intuitive UX, and a scalable e-commerce foundation, we created a platform positioned for international growth and future multilingual expansion. Challenge Manuela Picard’s goals included: • Building a luxury-focused e-commerce website to compete in the premium beauty segment. • Delivering seamless mobile shopping, especially for high-value purchases. • Creating a design that conveys sophistication while remaining clean and minimalist. • Preparing for multilingual expansion into Spanish and French markets.

### Transforming Technical Expertise into a Clear, Credible Digital Experience

Portfolio Communications needed a modern digital presence that reflected the depth of its IT infrastructure expertise while making complex services easy to understand. Our collaboration focused on transforming an outdated, hard-to-navigate website into a clear, mobile-first platform that builds trust, generates leads, and guides prospective clients toward action. By combining professional design, streamlined information architecture, and conversion-focused content, we helped Portfolio Communications present its services with clarity, confidence, and authority. Challenge Their existing website lacked clarity and structure, making it harder for potential clients to understand their services. They needed: • A professional, authoritative design to build credibility. • Mobile-first development for a seamless experience across devices. • Optimized information architecture to help users find services quickly. • Content optimization for lead generation.

### Evolving a Product-Focused Website into a Global Trade and Commerce Platform

As All Things Japan expanded beyond product sales into consulting and international trade brokering, their digital presence needed to evolve alongside their growing ambitions. Our collaboration focused on transforming an existing product-centric website into a bilingual, strategically structured platform that supports global business partnerships while introducing a curated, select-shop e-commerce experience. By aligning modern UX, culturally fluent bilingual content, and a professional design system, Studio Five helped position All Things Japan as a credible global trade hub and a trusted bridge between Japanese businesses and international markets. Challenge The company’s existing site was product-focused and lacked the structure to support its new consulting and brokering services. They required: • A bilingual (English/Japanese) platform for global reach. • Enhanced UX and navigation for business partners and customers. • Integration of a select-shop e-commerce experience. • A professional, trustworthy design that reflected their growing international presence.

From my point of view, the website is drastically easier to use. One of the things we wanted to try to accomplish is to customize packages. We sell four different package values. What our old site didn’t allow us to do was to make any changes to those or to order à la carte. Now, if you don’t like what’s in a package, you can order what you want.

We needed a unique website designed for us. I had gone through 3 different web development companies but fired them all. It took a unique person or business to understand what I was trying to achieve with the website. Studio Five created an online store that’s easy to use.
