Sans Other Obri 1 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Boldine' by Fateh.Lab, 'Artch' by Mevstory Studio, 'Beni' by Nois, 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, and 'Muscle Cars' by Vozzy (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, block-built sans with heavy, rectangular strokes and crisp, right-angled joins. The letterforms are constructed from straight segments with occasional chamfered corners and wedge-like notches that create a faceted, cut-out look. Counters tend to be tight and often rendered as thin vertical slits, producing strong dark mass and a distinctly mechanical rhythm. Spacing feels disciplined and modular, with consistent vertical emphasis and a sturdy, poster-like presence across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where impact and silhouette carry the message—headlines, posters, branding marks, and strong label-style typography. It can also work well for game/UI titling and on-screen graphics where a compact, high-contrast-in-mass look helps text hold up at medium-to-large sizes.
The overall tone is stern and utilitarian, with a retro-tech edge that recalls arcade cabinets, industrial labeling, and dystopian title cards. Its rigid geometry and dense color give it a commanding, no-nonsense voice that reads as engineered rather than handwritten or friendly.
The design appears intended to maximize visual force in limited horizontal space by using dense, modular shapes and simplified construction. Its faceted cuts and slit counters suggest a deliberate industrial/arcade aesthetic aimed at bold titling rather than long-form reading.
Lowercase echoes the uppercase construction closely, reducing the cap-to-lowercase contrast and reinforcing a uniform, system-like texture in paragraphs. Diagonals are minimized and simplified, and distinctive internal notches/slots become a key identifying motif throughout the alphabet and figures.
