The Bobby Car Wash brand book

Bobby Car Wash is a worldwide discovery directory for luxury hand car washes, professional detailing studios and custom automotive-care specialists. Drivers can discover, compare and explore trusted providers by country, city, service and location.

Positioning

A consumer-facing discovery directory for luxury car care

Plain-language description of what the product is, who it serves and what it deliberately excludes.

Who it is for

Drivers looking for luxury hand washing, professional detailing and custom automotive care. Comparable to a global booking and discovery platform, but built specifically for car-care businesses.

What is listed

Luxury hand washing, detailing and custom care only. No tunnels, no conveyors, no automatic brush machines and no petrol-station or self-service bays.

How businesses manage data

Studios will later manage their own directory data through /console, and directory profile data will be supplied by Bobby Directory integrations.

The current implementation is UI-only. All studios, ratings, prices, photography and people shown across the prototype are fictional demo content — no live backend, no booking and no real location tracking.

Identity summary

Brand Icon and Brand Emoji

The Studio Plate: a flat #165FEF square holding a white luxury car and exactly three white shine stars. No gradients, shadows or glows.

Brand Icon

Canonical standalone symbol

The full-detail plate. Use for app icons, favicons, profile marks, map markers and anywhere the symbol stands alone above roughly 24px.

Brand Emoji

Micro Studio Plate

An original simplified interpretation of the plate — lamp slits, hood shoulder and intake removed so it survives 16px. Use it for reactions, chat, captions and badges. Never substitute a generic Unicode car emoji.

Brand character

Bobby — the AI face of Bobby Car Wash

Bobby is the official face of the brand: a premium detailing specialist who is approachable, confident and professional, and recognisable across every campaign.

Disclosure: Bobby is a fictional, AI-generated character. He is not a real employee, founder, customer or detailer, and he must always be presented as a brand character rather than a real person.

Use Bobby for

  • · Owner-acquisition campaigns, onboarding and help content.
  • · Support and product-assistant avatars, always labelled as AI.
  • · Social posts explaining detailing services and car-care tips.

Never

  • · Present Bobby as a real employee, founder or verified reviewer.
  • · Attribute testimonials, ratings or endorsements to him.
  • · Restyle him with celebrity resemblance, irrelevant fashion or new faces — consistency is the point.

Black and very dark neutrals are for typography, photographic overlays and supporting UI only — never as a second brand colour. Photography always carries the blue treatment rather than a black wash.

Weights 600–800, tracking −0.02em, headings only.

Text · Manrope

Photography

Hand work, luxury vehicles, blue treatment

Real hands, real foam, real reflections. Every banner image carries the #165FEF treatment so photography stays visible while white type keeps contrast.

File naming & formats

Every asset resolves from /images/*

All public brand assets use lowercase kebab-case filenames under /images/. SVG files contain real vector markup, PNG files are real bitmaps, and photography ships as JPG with a WebP alternative.
