Sans Other Rekay 10 is a bold, very narrow, monoline, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Stallman Round' by Par Défaut, 'Brightland' by Pixesia Studio, 'Monbloc' by Rui Nogueira, and 'Akademiya' by Umka Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A compact, rectilinear sans built from straight strokes and crisp right angles, with squared corners and minimal curvature. Counters are tight and often rectangular, producing a dense, high-contrast silhouette against white space even with a monoline construction. Many terminals end bluntly, while select diagonals and notches (notably in V/W/Y and some joins) add a chiseled, mechanical rhythm. The overall proportions are tall and compressed, with consistent stroke behavior and a disciplined, grid-like feel across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where its compressed, geometric voice can read as a strong graphic element—posters, titles, branding marks, and product or tech packaging. It also fits short-label signage and interface-like callouts where an engineered, grid-based aesthetic is desired.
The tone is industrial and techno-leaning, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and retro-futurist interfaces. Its rigid geometry and narrow stance feel efficient and assertive, giving text a controlled, utilitarian presence with a hint of arcade/terminal nostalgia.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact sans with a deliberately mechanical, modular construction—optimized for punchy display text and a distinctive, systemized look rather than neutral paragraph reading.
Distinctive, blocky forms and tight apertures prioritize graphic impact over softness; at smaller sizes the narrow counters and dense shapes may benefit from extra tracking. Numerals follow the same squared logic, pairing well with the uppercase for systematic, coded-looking layouts.
