Sans Other Olwi 7 is a very bold, wide, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Digital Sans Now' by Elsner+Flake, 'Midsole' by Grype, 'Forza' by Hoefler & Co., 'Block Capitals' by K-Type, 'Francker' and 'Francker Paneuropean' by Linotype, and 'Winner Sans' by sportsfonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rectilinear sans with squared counters and a strongly modular construction. Strokes maintain a consistent thickness with crisp, right-angled terminals and minimal curvature, giving most glyphs a carved, geometric silhouette. Many letters feature inset rectangular apertures and occasional notches or cut-ins that create a stenciled, engineered feel. Spacing and widths vary by character, but the overall rhythm stays tight and compact, emphasizing dense, high-impact word shapes.
Best suited for display settings where impact and character are desired, such as headlines, posters, branding marks, game/interface typography, and tech-themed packaging. It works particularly well when set with generous size and spacing to let the internal cutouts read clearly. For longer text, it is more effective in short bursts (labels, subheads, callouts) than extended reading.
The font conveys a tough, technical tone—more machine-made than humanist. Its angular, compartmental forms evoke arcade and sci‑fi interfaces, industrial labeling, and tactical or utilitarian signage. The overall impression is assertive and functional, with a slightly retro-digital edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, engineered look through modular geometry and squared apertures, prioritizing strong silhouettes and a futuristic/industrial voice. The added notches and inset counters suggest a deliberate attempt to differentiate shapes and create a distinctive, system-like texture.
Round letters are largely squared off, and counters tend to be rectangular, which boosts a pixel-adjacent, grid-based aesthetic even at larger sizes. The design’s sharp corners and internal cutouts create strong texture in paragraphs, making it visually distinctive but potentially busy at small sizes.
